This 1960 Jaguar XK 150 SE 3.8 is the 50th from last FHC built. It was originally supplied to a US serviceman in Germany who took it back to the US with him. At some unknown point the car was then exported to South Africa, where it was converted to RHD, and upgraded to “S” specification, with a straight port head and triple 2” SU HS8 carburettors. It also appears that an all-synchromesh gearbox has been fitted. In 1989 the car was sold to a lady in Simon’s Town who kept it for 23 years. It was then purchased by the vendor in 2012.

The vendor has had a new red leather interior fitted, with matching carpets, and a new headlining, all to original specification. He has fitted a new aluminium radiator, a new aluminium fuel tank, the brakes have all been refurbished, and new wheel bearings were fitted at the same time. He also fitted a new stainless steel exhaust system and new tyres all round.

The car appears to be completely rust-free, with good paintwork, and all the chrome is very good. The interior is very good, and the engine starts without smoke and runs very well with good oil pressure. The car is fitted with very good wire wheels. All import duties have been paid, and UK registration has been applied for.

Car seems to have 15 inch wire wheels,

This car should have the larger rear taillights. which were introduced in Oct 1959.

What is the Body number ?
