The Jaguar XK150 was the last variant of the XK line of cars that began in 1948 with the XK120. As is common for sports cars, the XK150 was larger and wider than the previous variants, with improved comforts and features, but at the expense of extra weight. As with the other XK series of cars, the XK150 was available as an open two seater, drophead, coupe, and a fixed head coupe. The significant upgrades to the 140 largely consisted of disc brakes all around, along with an increase in width and, for the Open Two Seater, roll up windows replacing the sidescreens making for a more practical car. Although production initially used the same 3.4 liter engine as the XK140MC as standard, an “S” model of the 3.4 liter engine was introduced with three 2 inch carburettors. A different straight port cylinder head, and 250 advertised horsepower. Near the end of production, all engines were upgraded from the 3.4 liter variant to the 3.8 liter, with a normal and “S” model available in the 3.8 form as well. By the time production ceased in 1960, the XK line of cars was getting dated and was replaced in 1961 by the revolutionary E-Type.This example of the XK150 is one of only 42 3.8 liter open two seaters made and is a largely original car that has been in the Pacific Northwest for much of its life. Originally sold to an owner in California, I purchased the car from the previous owner near Vancouver, Washington, after he had owned it for over
