1953 Jaguar Xk 120 Le Mans coupe

History

The beautiful Jaguar XK 120 was a car that I brought five years ago but have been planning it for five years before that. I always loved the beautiful lines and the flow of the Xk 120 but without any disrespect to the original designers I felt some minor improvements could be made to the overall appearance of these beautiful cars.
I now feel that this Jaguar XK 120 is a true representation of what the original designer would have first sketched before practicality and cost had to be included into the design.
My design is now receiving a written endorsement from Jaguar designer Ian Callum and is currently on display at the Jaguar Design Studio. With wins now under its belt at pebble Beach week quail Lodge California and then UK at Blenheim Palace and also in Belgium at zoute Grand Prix with awards at all these events around the world and also a nomination for bespoke car of the year in the UK. The car now Resides in its new home in Melbourne.

Modifications

Re designed by Justin Hills to pay respect to the original design.
