What Makes It Special? This vehicle has all matching numbers and is one of 222 left-hand drive XK150 OTSs with overdrive. This is a 1959 Jaguar XK 150 Open Two-Seat (OTS) Roadster w/overdrive. There were 2173 XK150’s produced overall model years (1957-1959). 489 were produced with overdrive (both left-hand and right-hand drive). This is a rare combination. All matching numbers with an odometer reading 34,343 miles. The car has been garaged for over 40 years and needs a new home and restoration. I am the third owner and have a clear title in hand.

Body Condition: The body condition is fair to poor. The body is relatively free of rust but the rear door pillars on both sides are rusted through. The door hinge pillars are solid. The boot well is relatively solid. The interior carpeting was removed years ago but the seats are intact.

The most significant changes with the introduction of the XK150 were to the styling with a taller and wider body to allow for a roomier cockpit and give a fresh look heading into the 1960s. Its original finish was in blue with black interior. It was repainted white in the 1970s.

Over the years we have traded for and purchased parts that will be required to get the car back in top condition. Too many to list–I have included a few pictures. Selling everything together as a package. This car needs a full restoration to be brought back to its original beauty. The motor was last running in the 1990s but is free and clear.
