Ebay item 3/29/17
www.ebay.com/itm/1958-Jaguar-XK-/172598735435
Opening bid US $49,000, no reserve, no bids 9 days left in auction, seller classiccarsandjeepparts, 92k miles.

Sellers description:
1958 XK150 Coupe The goal of the previous owner was to build a high-end no expense spared car capable for highway driving and road rallies, his dream was to make it better, faster and run cooler with more reliability than when it left the factory. The full restoration started with a good complete solid car. Engine # V-2543-8 with matching head # was fully rebuilt and mated to a later model 5 speed transmission. (This is not the original engine for this car.) New heavy-duty custom aluminum radiator, new chrome wire wheels etc.... We have very detailed restoration invoices from Vintage Jag Works totaling over $119k plus over $10k in other misc. receipts plus original purchase price of the car @ $35k. Total investment of $164k plus, unfortunately the owner passed away and his dream was never completed. The estate moved the car a couple of times and some parts were lost. List of lost parts: D/S exterior door handle and trim D/S interior door handle D/S window crank D/S ash tray D/S door inner window stops and brackets D/S and P/s door latch rods Trunk handle Trunk locking mechanism Rear bumper Rear license plate frame Speedometer gauge glass Trim The car does start and runs great it will run and drive AS IS looks to be an easy worthwhile project to finish.
