Auction description:
Silverstone Classic Sale
1958 Jaguar XK150 Fixedhead Coupe
Lot No.: 152
Registration: OSU167
Chassis Number: TBA
Engine Number: TBA
Number of cylinders: 6
Year of Manufacture: 1958
Sold for (£): 40,500.00
'OSU 167' was originally manufactured in 1958 and exported to South Africa. It was repatriated back to the UK in 1989 and on its return to the UK the bodywork was restored to its current colour of Gun Metal Grey metallic. Having spent the majority of its life in a warmer climate, the car required minimal repair as the body was found to be in good overall condition. 'OSU 167' has been in its current owner's possession since 2006 and during that time he has set about making sensible upgrades. These include: power steering, stainless exhaust system, Koni shock absorbers, 3.8 S rear springs, Cooper Craft brakes, Harvey Bailey front anti roll bar, Facet fuel pump, Tremec 5-speed gearbox, bucket seat conversion re-trimmed in Cranberry hide, Mota Lita steering wheel, aluminium radiator cowl and electronic ignition. The improvements made have resulted in a car that drives extremely well and has proved to be very reliable.
