    1959 JAGUAR XK150 ROADSTER Stolen on 26 September 2007,  from Forney, Texas (near Dallas).

     

    VEHICLE ID number: S831439BW

     

    The Jaguar was taken out of a locked and chained barn.  The thieves ripped a very large metal door completely off the building to get to the XK which had been stored there for many years.

     

    The vehicle has a white body with tan softtop, the chassis is a 150 LHD Roadster number not a 140 however 140 bits may be stuck on.  It has a drum instead of disc brakes.  The original XK150 was an automatic, but the chassis is a manual transmission and there is also evidence of the re-fit with the centreline hump having been reconfigured for the stick.
