1959 Jaguar XK150 FHC
Chassis No. S835771BW
Engine No. V5366-8
Transmission: Automatic
Although having a family resemblance to the XK120 and XK140, the XK150 was radically modernized. A one piece windscreen replaced the split screen, and the wing line no longer dropped as much over the doors. The alloy bonnet was also widened, and opened down to the wings.
In the interior, the XK140's walnut dashboard was replaced by an elegantly leather trimmed dash. Thinner doors gave the interior needed space as well.
Four-wheel Dunlop 12 in. Disc-Brakes appeared for the first time. Suspension and chassis were very similar to that on the XK140. Steering was by rack and pinion; power steering was not offered. Production ended in October of 1960.
S837312: Offered here is an elegant fixed head coupe, meticulously restored from top to bottom, with no detail overlooked.
This iconic British roadster is finished in a beautiful metallic blue over dark blue upholstery, complimented by chrome wire wheels, and driving lamps; displaying excellent fit and finish throughout. The car also features correct “J” headlamps and dual exhaust.
The cabin of the 150 is quite striking. Supple hides and well polished wood adorn the cockpit as well as plenty of brightwork. An aftermarket stereo system has been installed under the dash.
The well sorted 3.4L motor is quite stout, exhibiting strong acceleration and steady idling as the automatic transmission shifts through all gears with ease. As a reliable machine, this Jaguar certainly draws attention with its striking looks, all while offering a pleasant care-free driving experience.
Meticulous Full Restoration!
Well sorted throughout!
Excellent fit and finish!

El Centro Histórico comprende actualmente alrededor de 1.500 edificios históricos repartidos en 9 km2 de superficie.
Historia.
Aquí se origina la Ciudad de México, nace antes de la llegada de los españoles a tierras del nuevo continente. Es el lugar a partir de donde la antigua Tenochtitlan se construyó y al ser vencida por los españoles fue destruída y reedificada como la capital de la Nueva España.
A partir de esta zona nacieron las cuatro calzadas principales de la antigua Tenochtitlan, y las cuales aún en la actualidad conservan su trazado y utilidad.
Esas cuatro calzadas que hoy se conoce como Centro histórico son:
- Tepeyac, con destino al Norte.
- Tacuba, con destino al Poniente.
- Iztapalapa, con destino al Oriente.
- Coyoacán; con destino al Sur.
En este ir y venir de calles y avenidas se encuentran algunos de los tesoros artísticos más preciados no solo de México sino del mundo. La ciudad de los palacios con que es rebautizado el centro histórico esta integrado por 668 manzanas quienes albergan edificios de gran valor artístico o histórico; sus construcciones religiosas, civiles, asistenciales, hospitalarias, administrativas, educativas, culturales y de habitación van del Siglo XVI al Siglo XX, toda ellas en conjunto siguen siendo el corazón económico y político de la ciudad.
Por su riqueza monumental, se le considera el centro histórico más relevante de América. Fue declarado por la UNESCO "Patrimonio Cultural de la Humanidad" en 1987.
Durante los últimos años se ha emprendido una intensa campaña de restauración, que le esta devolviendo a esta zona su esplendor original.

A young girl sifts through some of the refuse in a giant garbage dump in Guatemala City. About 700 people live in the dump itself, and another 1200 live in a shantytown just outside the walls. They spend most of their days going through the garbage for anything they can eat or resell.
Guatemala City, 1991.
They are blooming almost a month early this year. So is everything else. The warm temperatureshave brought on all the blossoms. Hope we don't have a freeze now!
I took this shot on 9-11-2014 around about the time the towers came down in 2001. When I saw Ground Zero in 2002, it was a giant pit with a walkway down to it, and this shot reminds me of that. A walkway down and out to a vast landscape that is changing faster than we can absorb.
