Default Hi from Seattle

Re-aquiring a beautiful red XKI150S that was originally delivered in Oct 1958 to the same small town I live in near Seattle WA to a Mr James Reid. Nearly even the same name (my spelling is Read)
I had a 59 XK150S roadster in 1961 in Montreal Canada and look for ward to the fun of driving on sunny days in the beautiful NW USA.

Thanks Norri, I am looking forward to getting back into the action, shows and driving the car. Do you know if there are any Seattle XK Clubs?
I did fill out my signature info and a pix of the car but not sure if it will show.

This one sure did. Identical to the 59 I had when I got out of college and worked a whole year to save up. Only difference was my 59 had a manual shift overdrive - otherwise identical and in nearly the same shape.
