This 1959 Jaguar XK150 S Drophead Coupe was refurbished in 2000, at which time a replacement fiberglass body was fitted. It is finished in metallic green over tan leather and is powered by a 3.4-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Features include a brown soft top, 16″ wire wheels, disc brakes, fog lights, and adjustable seats. This XK150 S was acquired by the selling dealer in 2023 and is now offered in Vancouver, Canada, at no reserve with clean British Columbia registration.

The selling dealer reports that the body is a recreation constructed of fiberglass aside from the doors, bonnet, trunk lid, and fender vent doors, and it is finished in metallic green with a replacement folding brown soft top. Styling attributes include a one-piece windshield, fog lights, bright trim, and full-width chrome bumpers with overriders.

The 16″ wire wheels are mounted with BFGoodrich wide-whitewall tires. Braking is handled by four-wheel discs.

The adjustable seats have been retrimmed in tan leather and are complemented by a leather-wrapped dashboard. Interior appointments include a cabin heater, a defroster, wind-up side windows, door storage pockets, and a folding rear bulkhead. The carpets are worn.

The four-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of Smiths instrumentation consisting of a 6k-rpm tachometer with an embedded clock as well as a 140-mph speedometer and a voltmeter alongside gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, and water temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 4k miles, approximately 50 of which were added under current ownership. True mileage is unknown.

The 3.4-liter inline-six was serviced in December 2023, reportedly with rebuilds of the carburetors, cleaning of the fuel system, and replacement of the spark plug wires, distributor cap and rotor, and thermostat.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive.

The vehicle is being sold on its British Columbia registration, which serves as the ownership document in British Columbia, Canada. The sale does not include a title.
