1959 Jaguar XK150 , Ecurie Ecosse Blue/Red Leather, 35000 Miles
The car was found in a barn in 1986. The car underwent a frame off restoration in 1988. The car was completely original with a dual carb 3.4 litre motor and overdrive four speed transmission. The motor was completely rebuilt to stock specifications for street and racing applications with the emphasis on reliability by Jerry Mong. After racing the car for six years in vintage events, the motor was pulled and the engine refreshed with new bearings and a new oil pump. No other modifications or work was required. After racing another year(two races),it was time for a bigger and faster motor and five speed transmission. A tri carb 3.8 litre race motor was then installed. Additional modifications were also performed to support the bigger motor. These are outlined below in detail. The car has been raced once each year at Mid-Ohio since the new 3.8 motor was installed. Lap times have been in the high 1:50's with a very conservative driver(me). The car has never had a DNF in any race and has always finished without any problems other then a blown tire in practice. The car has never been off the hard racing surface and has never been in any contact with another car, guard rail, etc. A list of the modifications required for vintage racing are listed below. All original equipment is available to restore the car to street if desired.The roll cage has been bolted to the frame(not welded) so that it can be easily removed if street use is desired. The original gas tank has been removed and replaced with a racing fuel cell(8 gallon). All bumpers have been removed and are available if desired. Top frame components and original wire wheels (painted) are also available. All these items are in original condition and will need to be restored for street use. The following modifications were done during the frame off restoration:
The car has actual mileage before restoration of 43526 miles.It has never been hit or in an accident on or off the track.The car has 15 races on it since restoration and only two races with the 3.8 litre race motor.
