    Additional info from Gavin:
    Model: Jaguar XK150
    Body: Fixed Head Coupe
    Colour: Sherwood Green
    Interior: Biscuit
    Chassis: S824479BW
    Engine: V4363-8
    Reg: XKI50B

    This XK150 was originally delivered to Henley's, London on the 16th of June 1958 and was imported into Australia and first registered in Victoria on the 28th of July, 1958. It has changed hands a few times until purchased by the current owner in 1994.
    The car is totally numbers matching and features the quite rare automatic transmission option. The original 3.4 litre engine was rebuilt by Gavin King in 1995 and since then the owner has enjoyed trouble free motoring.
    Drive and enjoy as is, or progressively improve or one day restore. Being a UK delivered car, it can return to the UK VAT free.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
