The XK120 presented has benefitted from a frame-off restoration in the late 90's. The engine was slighlty rebored within tolerances and new pistons were fitted. Valve seats were modified to accept unleaded petrol.
Brakes front and back are new and operate on silicon brake fluid (lifelong fluid). The fuel tank has also been treated with an epoxy resin for years of trouble-free motoring.
The electrics have been overhauled (wiring) and the starter motor, dynamo and all gauges have been controlled.
The stainless steel exhaust is brand new as is the upholstery, fully redone with excellent quality leather and wool carpets. The cellulose-based paint has been applyied in 6 layers and looks absolutely fabulous.
To finish it all off, the alpaca hood is new as is the tonneau cover and rest of weather gear!
This really is a sumptuous XK120, viewing is highly recommended!
