Auction description:

Lot number101

Hammer value £54,000

Description Jaguar XK150 3.4 SE FHC

Registration 350 COA

Year 1960

Colour Sherwood Green

Engine size 3,442 cc

Chassis No. S825286DN

Engine No.V7573-8

As its accompanying Heritage Certificate confirms, this particular car was built at the end of June 1960 and was supplied new by PJ Evans of Birmingham to its first owner, L Walters of the same city. Painted in Sherwood Green with a Suede Green interior, 350 COA also had the desirable overdrive gearbox option. The chassis number makes it the 83rd from last fixed-head built while the 'S' prefix denotes that it is a Special Equipment model.

Not much is known of the subsequent history of the car (although this is easily traced as there have only been four keepers) but in mid-2009 it was acquired by the current keeper in a somewhat dilapidated state. Over the next two years he was to treat the car to a total nut-and-bolt restoration which resulted in the magnificent specimen you see today. Every part of the car was rebuilt or renewed as necessary which included replacing virtually all of the exterior panels. The original engine was fully rebuilt with new pistons and liners as was the manual overdrive gearbox. The disc brakes were upgraded with a Guy Broad kit and all the suspension renewed.

The interior has been retrimmed in the original Suede Green and new brightwork and chrome wire wheels fitted all round. Needless to say the car is now in outstanding condition throughout with superb panel fit and paint finish, again in the original and wonderfully subtle Sherwood Green - surely the best colour combination for this model. Since the restoration was completed the car has only covered a nominal mileage and will need a period of careful running in before the performance is extended to the full. This car is as new!

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?
