1960 Jaguar XK150 S 3.8-Litre Drophead Project
Supplied new by Ashton Preston Garages Ltd to the Preston Mattress Company Ltd, this 1935 Jaguar XK150S 3.8 S Drophead Coupé presents itself as a rare opportunity. First registered on 1 January 1960, the car has a limited history file and went through two owners before being purchased by the deceased vendor in 1969. The history includes a V5C, buff logbook and a quantity of expired MOTs.
Sadly the car has seen much better days, and was spun off the road on a wet day in September 1996. The vendor, who was driving the car, unfortunately lost control and ended up crashing head on into a tree. He remarkably walked away, however the car has remained garage-stored ever since. Considering the date of the crash and being kept in dry storage, the car is still in a salvageable condition, and offers enormous potential as a rewarding project car. An opportunity not to be missed.
