Sellers description:
The previous owner of this wonderful XK150 Fixed Head Coup cared for and meticulously maintained this excellent driving machine for over 40 years. It was always garaged kept at his home in Oregon. I was fortunate enough to acquire it from him about a year and a half ago and planned on keeping it in my collection for many years to come. Due to health reasons I am forced to reduce my beloved car collection.
This beautiful example of a classic Jaguar sports car could possibly be one of the finest drivers in the country. It is not a trailer queen! It had a cosmetic makeover more than 20 years ago and still shows very respectable. The body and chassis are solid with no sights of rust except the battery box pan which needs to be replaced. The chrome is in very good original condition and the leather interior only shows minor wear as can be expected. The mechanics on this beauty are in like new condition with almost perfect cylinder compression, no smoke from the exhaust even on start up, smooth shifting, overdrive engages perfectly, oil pressure is excellent even at idle, never overheats, and starts immediately with the touch of the starter button.
I have spent over $7000 in repairs and maintenance to make sure this car is in top condition. This includes new batteries, complete brake system overhaul with new lines, pads, rebuilt wheel and master cylinder, all fluids changed, new oil pump, replace harmonic balancer, complete tune up, rebuild both SU carburetors, and replace overdrive solenoid and throttle switch.
You will not be disappointed in this excellent example of a superb British sports car!

4-Speed Manual Transmission with Overdrive

This lovely, numbers-matching was built on March 13, 1958 and delivered new in Pearl Grey over Red leather through though Personal Export Delivery—essentially UK delivery of a car marked for export—to NBA first-round draft pick Dave Gambee. A present to himself for making it to the pros, the 6-foot 7inch Gambee would keep his Jaguar in his home state of Oregon for 55 years before letting it go in 2013. Receipts going back to 1977 show the car was mechanically and cosmetically maintained throughout its life. The antepenultimate owner from 2013-2015 furthered this record of maintenance with a reported overhaul of the brake system, rebuild of the carburetors, replacement of the overdrive solenoid and switch and more.

Today the car shows very nicely with its elegant original color scheme. Certainly not a trailer queen, as part of the Tsuru Collection this Jag is meant to be driven and enjoyed. An excellent and comfortable entrant to any number of great events, it fixed roof will ensure comfort and weather protection while its big six with overdrive will no doubt hum along at highway speeds without fuss.

In 1970, this example was purchased by NBA star David Gambee, who was the 6th first round draft pick of the 1958 NBA draft. The 6’6” Forward was later part of the 1967 NBA Championship Philadelphia 76ers. Mr. Gambee meticulously maintained his prized Jaguar for 43 years at his home in Oregon, passing it on to its third owner in 2013.
