Sellers description:
Chassis: T836012DN
Color: Green/Red
Engine: 3.4L #VS1787-9
Transmission: 4-Speed
Complete Numbers Matching Car
Factory Overdrive


The vehicle available here is one of the last produced and stands ready for restoration as a nearly complete and original example of the powerful "S" version of the 150. Upgraded with three 2" SU carburettors and 9:1 compression, the 3.4L "S" engine was rated at 250bhp and said to accelerate from 0-60 in 7.8 seconds.

The body on this car is, in a word, Fantastic. Showing absolutely no rust, this example is a 10/10. The engine is known to be good and everything about this car screams "Original." Near complete, this #'s matching XK-150 3.4S is remarkable and ready now for a complete and thoughtful restoration. Some work was performed during the previous ownership

Seller's description:

This spectacular Jaguar XK-150 S FHC show car is an original California car, and a very rare example that underwent an 2-year restoration by a well-known marque expert. This example was built on January 15, 1959, and is one of only 149 Left Hand Drive FHC “S” Models produced; of those, only 87 were imported into the United States.

The Coupe had been off the road since the early 90s, but has had a rich history on the show field in recent years, where it has been the recipient of numerous Concours awards:

• Champion North America (2017 and 2019) Jaguar Clubs of North America (JCNA) Slalom Class B for 1949-1961 Jaguar Sports Cars

• Champion North America (2017) JCNA Monte Carlo Rally

• 2nd Place (2018) North America - JCNA Concours Special Division S2/MOD

• Best of Show 2017 Jaguar Club of Florida Concours

• Award of Excellence 2018 Amelia Island Festival of Speed

The Coupe was repainted in Imperial Maroon to show car level, with all britework re- chromed. The XK-150's interior was completely restored in Tan with all of the correct and proper materials. All of the Coupe's instruments were rebuilt and refinished. The engine was rebuilt with all new forged pistons, cams, valves, and valve springs, as well as the gearbox with NOS gears. The Overdrive and differential were also rebuilt, and a lightened flywheel and 9.5 inch clutch was installed. The car's entire four wheel disk brake system was completely renewed. The Coupe received all new or rebuilt mechanical components with all new wiring, bearings, bushings, universal joints, and gaskets.

Upgrades:

• Authentic Derrington wood rim steering wheel (period correct)

• Borrani polished alloy rim wire wheels (period correct) with 3 eared knockoffs

• 3.8 Liter short block installed in the car, with the original numbers-matching 3.4 liter block included

• LED taillights added for safety.
