1958 JAGUAR XK150 ROADSTER "NICE DRIVER QUALITY CAR, MECHANICALLY EXCELLENT!!!
Chassis No.: S831169
Engine No.: W7900-8
Body No.: F16172
The Classic Car Gallery is proud to offer this 1958 Jaguar XK150 roadster. She is a beautiful example of the iconic British open air car that is in fine driver quality condition. The car features a well sorted XK120 3.4 liter engine, and correct 4-speed manual transmission. Found in a barn in Maine by Owl's Head Transportation museum curator, Ethan Yankura, the car was said to been owned by a british gentleman for the greater half of the 19th century. She is a particularly nice driving car that has been well sorted by British Motors of Fairfield County. Recently the car received a host of work that focused on its reliability and drivability which included;
Remove and Replace 2 Carburetors, clean and adjust
Replace Points Ignition with a pertronix system including new plugs and coil
Remove and Replace entire braking system including calipers, discs, pads, shoes, rotors. Bleed system.
Install two new air horns
General multi-point inspection
The white paint is good, with good luster and shine. The black leather interior was clearly redone at some point, and now has a nice patina. The black canvas roadster top is in good condition, and seals well; the top mechanism works as it should. The chrome and brightwork are in excellent condition. The car rides on chromed wire wheels and new radial tires; the wheels are gorgeous. All electrical and mechanical systems work as they should. The underside of the car shows its age, but the floors are solid and there is little corrosion. The British Heritage certificate comes with the car. This car is an excellent driver, and could be used in this capacity or would make a good starting point for a full restoration. She is a pleasure to drive, only needing an enthusiastic new owner.

Auction description:
1957 Jaguar XK150 Roadster
Estimate: $70,000 - 80,000
Chassis # S831169
Offered here is an outstanding example of the Jaguar heritage, a 1958 XK150 finished in Old English White. There's just something special about a British sports car and this 150 proves it. Its beautifully sculptured lines literally define style and this one is also equipped with wire wheels. The interior features the classic sports car lay out with a black interior and all gauges clean, clear, and easy to read. Power for this XK150 comes from a retrofitted 3.4 liter twin cam six that was one of Jaguar's best engines. The engine is not original to the car, but is of thr correct type for a 150. This engine is neat and tidy and this is a car that runs as well as it looks. Most impressive is the signature badge on the rear deck that proudly proclaims Jaguar's victories at Le Mans. This Jaguar wears an older restoration that has held up well and still looks presentable.
