1958 Jaguar XK150 3.4 S Roadster

Estimate: $200,000 - $250,000 | Without Reserve

Chassis: T831226DN

Engine: VS1320-9

Rarely does a Jaguar become available embodying the characteristics of this example. Introduced in 1958, and built in a series of just 888 cars, the XK150 3.4 S Roadster combined classic Jaguar beauty with mechanical improvements such as four-wheel Dunlop disc brakes and a three-carburetor engine. More important to the discerning collector, this roadster is a wonderfully original, unrestored specimen.

Sold new by Smith Motor Imports in San Antonio, the window sticker retained by its first owner, Arthur H. Fenstermaker, shows a retail price of $5,370, including optional chrome wire wheels and whitewall tires. Its second owner, a noted Jaguar collector, garnered five Jaguar Clubs of North America awards with it. The XK150 S then passed to Jack Gorman, who enjoyed its prowess on the road, participating in the Jaguar Roadrunner 1000 Rally held in New Mexico in fall 2002. The Jaguar's current owner added it to his collection in 2003, and it currently shows just under 49,000 original miles. He reports that the XK150 S "drives and operates as only a premium low-mileage car can." Its largely original Mist Grey paintwork is complemented by a black soft top and patinated red leather interior, much of which remains factory original. Accompanying the car are original accessories including its tool kit, tonneau cover, jack, ratchet, grease gun, and unused spare tire. This Jaguar presents a rare opportunity to acquire a carefully preserved example in the highly desirable S configuration.

This 1958 Jaguar XK150 3.4 S roadster is one of 888 built and was manufactured on August 29, 1958. Sold new through Smith Motors of San Antonio, Texas, the car was purchased by the seller two years ago and is powered by a 3.4-liter DOHC inline-six backed by a four-speed manual gearbox with overdrive. It is finished in Mist Grey over red leather interior and equipped with a black soft top, chrome wire wheels, and three SU carburetors. During the course of the seller’s ownership, the steering wheel was tightened, new brake lines and front brake pads were installed, and the turn signals were repaired. This XK150 S is now offered with recent service records, factory literature, a Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate, a tool kit, a spare tire, and a clean Michigan title in the seller’s name listing it as a 1960 model. The exterior is finished in Mist Grey and is equipped with a black soft top.

Chrome 16″ wire wheels were equipped from the factory and wear Avon Turbospeed Mk4 tires. The four-wheel Dunlop disc brakes received new lines and front pads in May 2019.

The red leather interior features matching door panels, red carpets, a red dashboard, and a black four-spoke steering wheel. Repairs to the turn signal and overdrive switches were completed in 2018.

Smiths instrumentation consists of a 6k-rpm tachometer, a 140-mph speedometer, and gauges for amperage, fuel level, water temperature, and oil pressure. The five-digit odometer shows 50k miles, less than 500 of which were added by the seller. True mileage is unknown.

The 3.4-liter DOHC inline-six is equipped with three SU HD8 carburetors and is paired with a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. The coolant hoses were replaced last year, and 2019 maintenance included new engine and transmission mounts.

Cylinder head stamping VS1320-9 and matches the number listed on the data plate and JHT certificate.

The Jaguar Heritage Trust certificate lists a manufacture date of August 29, 1958, New York delivery, and the original colors.

Service records covering the seller’s ownership are included in the sale along with handwritten records dating back to the first owner. A tool kit, spare tire, jack, factory literature, and importation documents also come with the car.
