Wow, I love the XK150! My father bought a new one in black with red leather which started me on my love of automobiles at 13 years old. Thanks for posting these.
Excellent photography. That XK-150 is a real class act. Wish they looked like that today.
Absolutely love the XK150.
😀😀😀😀 I owned a drop-head coupe version of the 1960 XK-150. Fun car except when it rained - owners will know what I mean.
Epic! Loving the XK150...
Brings back my wonderful memories of my back pages.
Thank you so much for sharing KTJohnson
Great shots, Kim, I really like the X150.
I have always been a fan of British sports cars the only problem is they could, and would, break at a moment's notice. You either had to have a mechanic on retainer or be a mechanic yourself to afford one. I loved my 59 MGA but I spent almost as much time working on it as I did driving it.
P.S. The guy who invented SU side draft carburetors should spend all eternity rebuilding them.

How about the president or engineers at Lucas Electrical?

Not sure about the president, if he was an engineer see the next sentence. The engineers? I don't think so they have no social or interpersonal skills and had no idea what they doing to regular people.
I had an XK-150 Fixed-head Coupe. White with black leather. It was good enough to attract the attention of my now 60-years wed spouse!
