Jaguar XK120 Drophead Coupe, OHP 503

this car is 6670033 and dates to october 1953

Its from British Spares Exchange (Forrest Voges) in Springfield Mass. I guess he is affiliated with Jolly Rogers Motors dot com which sells on ebay as albion_wheels. He included a flyer with all his 120 repro parts but at 2016 prices. Came quick enough, 2 days.
Seems to be fine, fits alright anyway.
I had to run a 5/16-24 UNF die over the threads on the flip down clamping stud. Wonder when was the last time it had a nut on it, bet it was in the Eisenhower administration.
