The XK150S was introduced in 1958 and is widely regarded as the culmination of Jaguar's engineering achievements with the XK series. Indeed the specification of the XK150S undoubtedly paved the way for the E-Type that replaced it in 1961. The "S" boasted triple SU carburettors, a revised Harry Weslake-modified cylinder head and a manual 4-speed overdrive transmission. Performance was seriously impressive for 1958 with an enhanced output of 250bhp and a top speed of 132 mph. The vast majority of 150S roadsters were sold abroad, most likely a consequence of a turbulent British economy and equally turbulent weather forecast.

Offered here today is chassis number T836114 which was originally supplied to the USA in 1959 as a XK150 3.4S

Having spent 30 plus years in storage the previous owner started restoration of chassis number T836114 however other projects took priority and we are therefore delighted to offer this XK150S. We are informed that this Californian 'black plate' example runs and drives and that the bodywork is solid having been partially restored. It benefits from having some new panels fitted and the interior is in very good order.

Needing not much more than the exterior finishing the opportunity exists to created a wonderful XK150S and with the values of this model rising considerably this one should not be ignored at this guide price.

A Jaguar Heritage Certificate has been ordered and should be supplied in time for the sale. NOVA has been applied and UK taxes paid.
