The XK Gazette reports the car was at auction April '13. Found info at:
www.cheffins.co.uk/lot/-663962-vintage-0
Auction description:
Lot 856
1959 3442cc Jaguar XK150S Reg. No. 3466 EV Chassis No. 824959DN Engine No. VAS1272-8 This XK was purchased in 2006 from a family who had owned it since 1978, now partially restored, at the time of cataloguing, standing as a bare metal body clearly the subject of much work and appearing to be near finished, mounted on a restored chassis all on spoked wheels. Side glass fitted, no engine, gearbox, interior or trim fitted, supplied as a rolling chassis together with a pallet of chrome bumpers and over riders etc, a qty of parts inside the car and, most importantly a fully restored engine and gearbox. Potentially a most exciting car worthy of further research, V5 documentation present, list of previous owners, receipts etc in the history file.15000-18000

Picture shows an OTS or DHC has it been converted ?
Also engine noted as a 3.4 should be a V or VS, but engine number shows a 3.8 with VAS title .
First FHC RHD with VAS title was T- 825028dn
Is there a Heritage certificate available .

Car number T825012dn had a replacement VAS engine installed at factory from a VS.
This was prior to the production line installations of VAS engines for the FHC.

Same VAS-1272 engine noted in car 825351 as noted by Peter Ingram. However this shows an 8-1 compression, Did they ever make an 8-1 VAS ?

Surely a typo should be changed to -9

The engine alone was offered today on Belgian Ebay with engine number VAS-1272-8

This car S-824959dn was never built with a 3.8 VAS engine,
All RHD Fixed Head Coupe chassis numbers started with T- 825 xxx-9 except five cars which started with an S-825xxx,
The engine number stamping on this engine however does look like a factory punching. But why 8-1 compression.?
