This XK150 Drop Head Coupé is possibly one of the finest existing. If you have "the" mansion then this is the only possible car to complement the refinement. This car is a real statement.
3.8-liter Automatic with overdrive. Only 586 3.8-liter DHCs ever produced with only 120 Automatic XK150s produced (all engine sizes). This is a "Special Equipment" model. Likely only 20 similar models ever produced - RARE! A solid investment. Matching numbers |

0536MD was originally supplied to Luigi Taramazzo in 1955 who campaigned the car in that year's Mille Miglia. He was to campaign the car further that year at Monza and Imola, with a 2nd in class and 6th overall.
Later in that year the car was returned to the Ferrari factory for a service and rebuild, and was sold to Luigi Chinetti and imported into America. Bob Goldich bought it and entered it in numerous events around North America, finishing first overall at Elkhart Lake. Passing through another change of ownership, the car was bought by Jack Brewer in 1958 who ran the car at various events such as Watkins Glen. The car went through a number of changes of ownership returning to Europe in the early 1990s, receiving a completed restoration by Terry Hoyle and DK Engineering. Recently the car has been campaigned successfully in the Shell Historic Challenge, Mille Miglia Retrospective and the Le Mans Classic. 0536 MD is supplied with a number of spares, and a large history file, which includes a large selection of archive pictures of the car being campaigned in Europe and America in period. |
