My wonderful XK150 Fixed Head Coup cared for and meticulously maintained this excellent driving machine for over 40 years. It was always garaged kept at his home in Oregon. I was fortunate enough to acquire it from him about a year and a half ago and planned on keeping it in my collection for many years to come. Due to health reasons I am forced to reduce my beloved car collection.This beautiful example of a classic Jaguar sports car could possibly be one of the finest drivers in the country. It is not a trailer queen! It had a cosmetic makeover more than 20 years ago and still shows very respectable. The body and chassis are solid with no sights of rust except the battery box pan which needs to be replaced. The chrome is in very good original condition and the leather interior only shows minor wear as can be expected. The mechanics on this beauty are in like new condition with almost perfect cylinder compression, no smoke from the exhaust even on start up, smooth shifting, overdrive engages perfectly, oil pressure is excellent even at idle, never overheats, and starts immediately with the touch of the starter button.I have spent over $7000 in repairs and maintenance to make sure this car is in top condition. This includes new batteries, complete brake system overhaul with new lines, pads, rebuilt wheel and master cylinder, all fluids changed, new oil pump, replace harmonic balancer, complete tune up, rebuild both SU carburetors, and replace overdrive solenoid and throttle switch.You will not be disappointed in this excellent example of a superb British sports car!
