Description
This 1960 Jaguar XK150 fixed-head coupe was completed on June 1, 1959 and distributed in the US by Jaguar Cars of New York, after which it reportedly spent its life in California and Arizona. It was acquired as an unfinished project by a JCNA regional director who completed a restoration around 2002. The car is finished in black over tan leather, and power is from a numbers-matching 3. Originally finished in Cream, the body received a repaint in its current shade of black during a restoration that was carried out in the early 2000s. Chrome 16â? wire wheels are secured by two-eared knock-offs and wear Pirelli Corsa tires that were mounted in 2019. The handbrake mechanisms were also lubricated and adjusted at that time. A video tour of the vehicle can be watched above. The interior was re-trimmed in 2002 using tan leather in place of the factory red upholstery. Color-keyed wool carpeting lines the footwells and transmission tunnel and is complemented by a matching wool headliner. Additional features include a four-spoke steering wheel with an adjustable column, a roof-mounted rear-view mirror, and tan Hardura trunk lining.
