Jaguar XK120
Compare coachwork and the early alloy-bodied roadster specification.
What to check before buying
Confirm the original body construction and build record. Keep later coachbuilding, such as a Ghia body, in the individual chassis history.
Chassis 679768 was delivered as a fixed-head coupé and later received Ghia Supersonic coachwork.
