Jaguar restorer hot-rods the classic XK 120
The Jaguar XK-120 is one of the most 'classic' classic cars of all time, and always included on the list of the world's most beautiful cars. The last thing you would expect is for someone to convert one into a hot-rod. But that is exactly what Jason Len of XK's Unlimited has done to a 1951 XK. Taking 3.8L engine from another classic, the Jaguar E-Type, Len has injected 300 hp into his XK's custom-made and lightened body.
Yes, yes, Jay Leno again....he gets all the cool cars to play with. Here he is again poring over and driving the hot rod Jag.
