    I have watched several of Lou's videos over the last few weeks. The cars are gorgeous. I am beginning to also enjoy the owners as part of the story almost as much as the cars.

    I hope he has seen the miss-aligned vertical chrome Grill strip.The gap is rather wider than the other's. This counts in shows of this calibre.

    Nice 51 Roadster Marco! Beautifully restored. Nice video.
    My OTS is about 60 cars later than Marco’s. I share your passion.

    Those radiator hoses are called "stockingette". MGA's used them too when new. Try and find them now.

    The spark plug wires run from the back of the cylinder head and under
    the carburetors to the distributor instead of the front of the head...where
    is the coil?

    • @loucostabile
      @loucostabile  4 роки тому

      Hmmm, not sure. Hope a Viewer can share the answer to your question.

    • @jeffwilliams5987

      Coil is it’s original intended location, mounted on the engine block under the carbs. That’s were I put mine but it overheats and dies, tell it’s cold again. Jaguar moved it too between the carbs on a custom made bracket. Works fine now.

      Hi Greg Gregory, I'm sure I've messed up more then a few times on the videos :-) What do you think of the car? Lou

      Hi Lou, I was referring to the owner making the comment. Great car and as usual great video production.

      Hi Greg Gregory, Ohhh...it's ok, I mess some things up too :-) I've been waiting for the right Jag 120 and this one's like a brand new car. Glad you like the car and think it's great. Me too, Lou

    I'm not a fan of white walls they tend to put on cars in US but other than she's an absolute beauty.

    • @loucostabile
      @loucostabile  5 років тому +1

      Hi paul Assidon, Glad to read (other than the white walls) you enjoy the looks of this car :-) Hope you see many more cars on this UA-cam Channel you'll enjoy, Lou

      The appearance of the xk120s is especially enhanced by the light rubber wall. But also for the XJ-6 and 12s, a thin white strip around the rim causes a spectacular optical improvement . But this is also true of the much newer Rolls Royce Phantom VII Coupe and Drophead.

    White wall tyres are a typical US american whim, but not suitable for the grace of an old british car !

      I like the whitewalls. I tried to picture it without them and it would just be too much black.
