    First really appreciated the graceful lines of the XK150 when we attended Goodwood Revival last year in our Healey 3000.
    After about a year of searching finally found an XK150 DHC in RHD format.
    Looking forward to the journey of restoring my purchase.
    I'm already impressed as to how easily they start when compared to the Healeys

    Sellers description:
    1958 Jaguar XK150 Drophead Coupe, very rare factory right hand drive with factory overdrive, black with tan interior, excellent body, same owner for many years. Extremely rare find, excellent candidate for an easy restoration, perfect addition to any collection. Mechanically sound.

    This car was mentioned in Jaguar Driver magazine January 1979.
    Mr A M Hammerman of Westcliffe-on-Sea Essex United Kingdgom had recently bought the car and wanted to know more about its history.
    He quoted the registration number and chassis number given above.

    Work in progress
    Has been repainted black with tan trim and soft top - prefer this colour scheme to the original
    Once the fuel tank and brake master cylinder is replaced it will be interesting to know how this baby performs.. Engine runs up well ( not original - think out of a mark 11 ) and clutch feel good.
    Have a set of new Borrani's and Perilli cinturato tyres to fit.

    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?
