Note: This is a 3.8 matching numbers engine, A 21522-9, ith no oil leaks and no transmission leaks. The 3.8 liter engine was a big option in last part of 1960 and 1961 on the XK150's. There were only 540 total, .8 optioned XK150 DHC built. Only 264 of those cars werebuilt with 4 speed and the optioned over drive. And, nly 60, K150 3.8 cars werebuilt with the higher 9 to 1 compression vrs. the 8 to 1 compression engine. All together there are not many like this one. And, his is a special equipment model. How many 1960 cars do you think are still really all original? Given the options and originality - it's pretty amazing.
