Selling a 1958 Jaguar XK150 Fixed Head Coupe

 

The third and most profitable generation of the Jaguar XK sports car line, the XK150 launched in 1957 and would be manufactured until October 1960. Over that time, 4,445 Fixed Head Coupe models would be produced; nearly twice the production of the Roadster or Drop Head Coupe. This would be the first time that Fixed Head Coupe models surpassed the much loved Roadster, which previously was responsible for the majority of sales in both the XK120 and XK140 lines. The 1958 Jaguar XK150 Fixed Head Coupe, with its elongated and widened hood, chrome accents centered along the front and rear hood, and iconic curvature would offer buyers – both then and now – a powerful yet affordable sports car that was steeped in racing pedigree. Today, the “affordable” part may not be so accurate, as the XK150 has become one of the most sought-after Jaguar classics in the market. If you’re the proud owner of a 1958 Jaguar Xk150 FHC and are thinking about selling, the Alex Manos team would like to speak with you.

 

1958 Jaguar XK150 Fixed Head Coupe Seller’s Guide

Buyers of all types are searching for 1958 Jaguar XK150 Fixed Head Coupe models of all conditions. From barn-finds that have been untouched for decades that would be ideal for restoration to fully completed restorations, poor condition bodies, and mint-condition original models, there is a place for all XK150 Fixed Head Coupes in the classic car market. As with all classic cars, Seller’s Tips include common items like providing recent photographs and documentation, being accurate with your descriptions, and objectively basing your price on both condition and rarity. For the Fixed Head Coupe specifically, buyers will want to know the extent of any rust, as these cars are prone to corrosion thanks to very little rust protection during the manufacturing process. Furthermore, buyers will want to know more about the engine and if it is the original 3.4L straight-six that came with the Jaguar, if it’s been rebuilt, of if it’s a different engine altogether. These are questions you should be prepared to answer. Documentation regarding any engine maintenance, repair or swap will be beneficial to adding value to your classic. These are just a few of the Seller’s Tips that the Alex Manos team is happy to provide. One of the leading California classic car dealerships in the country, they are always on the lookout for classics of all makes, models and conditions.
