Seller's description:

Vehicle Location Indianapolis, Indiana 46220, previously in Dayton, Ohio

This lovely example was acquired by the Seller in 1998 and immediately sent off for a complete restoration to top show standards. Tasteful mechanical upgrades were made including installation of a Richmond 6 Speed Gearbox, Willwood Disc Brakes, Electronic Ignition, Aluminum Radiator, Halogen and LED Lighting, an Alternator with a conversion to Negative Ground. The interior was tastefully upgraded with more sporting Bucket Seat backs- which make the car more comfortable for taller drivers-and a Moto Lita Steering Wheel.

All Original Parts were retained, and go with the car.

After successfully showing and enjoying the car for nearly 20 years the car was sent to noted Jaguar Specialist Muncie Imports in 2020 for an Engine Rebuild, a new Clutch and Throw out Bearing, and more. New Michelin X tires are scheduled to be installed in the next week or so.

This car was thrill to ride in and I hazard to say is one of the best prepared and roadworthy XK Jaguars on the market today. You can immediately campaign this car on any of the many Historic Rallies it is eligible for. This is just an exciting car, and I have some great spirited driving videos for those of you interested.

This is without a doubt one of the finest XK150 Roadsters in the country. A car you can buy with confidence and without hesitation.
