You are bidding on an exceptional 1959 Jaguar XK150 DHC, white with red leather, with only 53,957 original miles. It has the original California black license plates. My family is the second owner, having bought it from the original owner in 2000. It was not our intention to ever sell this car, but circumstances change. It is in extremely good and mostly original condition. It is a very unique vehicle in that is does not have overdrive. That is the way it was originally sold. It runs fantastic with no problems. It has a sport exhaust of the era, and sounds absolutely fantastic. I feel comfortable driving it anywhere. It is one of those rare cars that just drives like designed. Since we bought it, we have rebuilt the wire wheels, put Vredestein tires on it, rebuilt the generator, replaced the fuel pump, changed the batteries to gell cells, replaced the leather seats, replaced the top, rebuilt the carburetors, (all the usual British stuff) and probably other things, but generally not much really for owning a 56 year old car for the past 14 years. It has extremely "good bones." It has always been a California car, sold originally by E.F. Sweeney British Cars in San Rafael, CA. We bought it out of the original owner’s garage in Eureka California. All panels and paint look to be original. There is minor pitting on some chrome, but nothing real bad (see pictures). There is absolutely no rust. We had all the original selling documents but they got tossed out during one year’s spring cleaning. I still have an older California registration from the previous owner. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
