Equipment
Steel wheels, hubcaps, spats, Lucas tri-bar headlights, Lucas fog lights, JDHT certificate documented.
Condition
Excellent paint, chrome and interior. The underbody and engine compartment are restored to good but not exceptional standards. The wheels have been clumsily painted with the balance weights attached and the tires mounted. The front fenders are later replacements. The chrome is thin on the headlight peaks. Restored to decent cosmetic standards but mediocre mechanically.
Market commentary
One of 184 lefthand drive, disc wheels, fender spats alloy body XK 120s built, single family owner since the 1960 but the victim of a a 10 year long amateur restoration with many shortcomings. It might be the $300,000 car of Bonhams moderate pre-sale estimate but the bidders were wise to keep their offers to this even more modest level. It is too good to restore again, but its restoration is not anywhere close to what the car deserved.
