Produced in Jaguar's Coventry workshops on October 2, 1957, this Left-Hand Drive XK150 Fixed Head Coupe was dispatched to the United States shortly thereafter to Jaguar Cars of New York. The sleek coupe was originally trimmed in Mist Grey over red hides, the car appears to have spent the majority of its life in sunny Southern California with copies of old registrations dating from 1975 until 2005. At some point the car was repainted in Cotwold Blue but the original interior color was retained. It is understood to have been uprated mechanically with larger 3" SU HD8 carburetors and a straight ported cylinder head. To aid in cooling an aluminum radiator with electric fan has been fitted.

Acquired by the present owner in 2013, this Jag has seen little use in the past nine years and will require mechanical recommissioning prior to active use. Known for being one of the more spacious classic Jaguar models, the Fixed Head Coupe is a wonderful choice for drivers with a larger frame. With copious amounts of legroom complemented by a back 'jump' seat and a large trunk area, the XK150 is a very well-suited choice for travelling on vintage driving rallies such as the Copperstate 1000.

Lot #85744

This 1957 Jaguar XK150 fixed head coupe is finished in blue over a red leather interior and is powered by a 3.4-liter DOHC inline-six mated to a four-speed transmission. Equipment includes rack-and-pinion steering, four-wheel disc brakes, 16″ wire wheels, and a CD receiver. The car was acquired by the selling dealer in June 2022, and subsequent work included replacing the brake master cylinder and changing the oil. This XK150 is now offered in Texas with a Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust certificate and a clean Arizona title.

The car was refinished in blue under previous ownership and features chrome bumpers with overriders, a fender-mounted driver-side mirror, hinged fender vent doors, wing windows, and dual exhaust outlets with chrome tips.

Chrome 16″ wire-spoke wheels secured with two-eared knock-off nuts are wrapped in Dunlop Road Speed RS5 tires, and a spare stowed beneath the trunk floor wears an older Denman tire. Rack-and-pinion steering is equipped. Braking is achieved through four-wheel discs for which the master cylinder was replaced in preparation for the sale.

The seats, dash pad, and door panels feature red leather upholstery while the floors and transmission tunnel are overlaid with faded red carpeting. Appointments include front bucket seats, latch-and-link lap belts, a passenger-side grab handle, pop-out rear quarter windows, and an Eclipse CD receiver mounted beneath the dash.

An adjustable three-spoke wood-rimmed steering wheel fronts a dashboard with dual glove boxes—open on the left and locking on the right—as well as a central instrument panel housing a 140-mph Smiths speedometer and a tachometer with a 5,500-rpm redline and an inset clock. A Lucas ammeter is equipped, and additional auxiliary gauges display fuel level, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 9k miles, approximately 200 of which were driven by the selling dealer. True mileage is unknown.

The 3.4-liter DOHC inline-six is equipped with a straight-port A-type cylinder head from a contemporary 2.4-liter Mk I, larger-than-stock SU HD8 carburetors, and an aluminum radiator with an electric fan. The oil was changed in preparation for the sale.

The number V1856-8 stamped on the engine block matches the number recorded on the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust certificate as well as that stamped on the manufacturer’s date plate.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.

The Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust Certificate lists factory serial numbers and colors, a manufacture date of October 2nd, 1957, dispatch to the US later that month, and distribution through Jaguar Cars of New York.

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?
