This 1959 Jaguar XK150 S roadster was acquired by the seller in 1988 from its second owner in Florida and was subsequently refurbished, with work including a body-off repaint in black, reupholstering the red leather interior, and rebuilding the 3.4-liter inline-six and four-speed manual transmission. More recent freshening in August 2022 consisted of polishing the engine and replacing the fluids, tires, and battery. The car has a removable black soft top, 16″ wire wheels, disc brakes, and adjustable seats. This XK150 S is now offered with a service manual and transferable Georgia registration.

The body was removed from the frame and repainted black during the refurbishment in the late 1980s. A replacement black soft top was fitted, and additional equipment includes a one-piece windshield, bright trim, and full-width chrome bumpers with overriders.

The replacement 16″ wire wheels wear 185-width Vredestein Sprint Classic tires that were mounted in August 2022. A full-size spare is stored under the trunk floor, and braking is handled by four-wheel discs, which were rebuilt along with the suspension during the refurbishment.

The adjustable seats were reupholstered in red leather during the refurbishment and are complemented by a leather-wrapped dashboard. Interior appointments include a cabin heater, a defroster, wind-up side windows, door storage pockets, and a folding rear bulkhead.

The four-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of Smiths instrumentation consisting of a 6k-rpm tachometer with an embedded clock as well as a 140-mph speedometer and an ammeter alongside gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, and water temperature. The rebuilt five-digit odometer shows 91k miles, approximately 10k of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.

The 3,442cc inline-six featured triple SU HD8 carburetors from the factory for a rating of 250 horsepower and 240 lb-ft of torque. The engine was reportedly rebuilt in 1989. Fluid changes, polishing the valve covers, and a battery replacement were carried out in August 2022.

Engine block stamping VS1622-9 matches that shown on the ID plate in the engine bay.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive, which is said to have been rebuilt at the same time as the engine.

A handful of photos from the refurbishment work are included in the sale.

The car is being sold on its registration, as it is located in a state that does not issue titles for vehicles of its age.
