In May '06 SCM. Seen at Gooding & Co. Palm Beach FL auction 1/22/06.

Black/Tan/Red LeatherOdo 399 miles. One of only 89 XK150 "S" Dropheads produced. Frame-off restored in Belgium in 2003. Super-straight sides, but the trunk fit is a little off. Paint and chrome are flawless. Creases on leather seat bottoms, a few wrong wire ends in the engine bay. Very Clean undercarriage. Original tool roll, flamethrower headlights, overdrive transmission, correct orange cylinder head. Cond 1-. SOLD AT $159,500.

Great colors + rarity + superb condition = top price. The care was evident here, and the car looked very real, not artificial as they sometimes do. I hope the new owner likes it as much as I did." --Dave Olimpi.

1960 Jaguar XK150 S Drophead Coupe
LOT: 162
Chassis No. T838705DN

- The ultimate evolution of the classic XK-Series Jaguars of the 1950s
- One of about 89 XK150 S 3.8-liter DHCs
- Complete body-off concours-level restoration performed in 2005
- LHD, overdrive and fitted luggage
- Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust certificate
This very fine example received a meticulous, body-off restoration performed in Belgium during 2003, including concours-quality paintwork and a rebuild of the engine and gearbox. According to the accompanying Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust certificate, this factory-built XK150 S was completed on February 18, 1960. It was dispatched to Canada on March 7, 1960 and sold to its original owner, Mr. J.C. MacIsaac of Sudbury in Northern Ontario.

As offered today, the XK150 S is in stunning condition, finished in black with a tan convertible top and red interior. In addition to its high-performance 3.8-liter “S” engine, overdrive gearbox and beautiful restoration, the Jaguar includes a desirable set of fitted Connolly leather luggage, a complete and original tool kit and a set of chrome wire wheels. While the original XK120 was tremendously capable, many enthusiasts appreciate the XK150 as the ultimate and most-refined variant of the legendary XK-series cars. Of course, this XK150 S is unquestionably the most desirable specification, offering high performance levels and rarity to complement its timeless design and outstanding restoration.

I think this is only the problen of the Ruscelli web site not having been updated?
My understanding is that JD Classics part traded this car ie T838705DN for alloy XK120 670033 noted as the roger barlow car.
Note the pics of the ID plate on T838705DN show it is a reproduction plate

1960 Jaguar XK 150 S 3.8 Drophead Coupé
Chassis no. T 838705 DN
Engine no. VAS 1098-9
€300.000 - €350.000
To be auctioned on Saturday, May 14, 2016

265 bhp, 3,781 cc DOHC inline six-cylinder engine with three SU carburettors, four-speed manual transmission with electric overdrive, torsion bar independent front suspension, live rear axle with semi-elliptical leaf springs, and four-wheel hydraulic disc brakes. Wheelbase: 2,591 mm

Highly desirable and rare 3.8-litre XK 150 S; only 89 built
Laycock de Normanville overdrive
Beautiful high-quality restoration

The Jaguar Heritage Trust Certificate for this left-hand drive XK 150 S documents its manufacture on 18 February 1960. It was despatched from the factory on 7 March, consigned to Jaguar Cars Eastern Canada in Montréal for Mr J.C. MacIsaac in Sudbury, Ontario. Total XK 150 production totalled fewer than 8,000 cars, of which just 2,133 are said to be drophead coupés. Most of these were built for export, but those of 3.8 S-specification number only 89, making them rare in any constituency.

Equipped with the 265 horsepower triple-carburettor engine, this car also has the desirable Laycock de Normanville electric overdrive. It received a meticulous, body-off restoration in Belgium in 2003, including concours-quality paintwork and a rebuilt engine and gearbox. The interior was completely re-done in red leather, the original specification, but the factory exterior combination was reversed, the cream body becoming black and the former black top replaced in tan, a most attractive motif. It comes with chrome wire wheels and the aforementioned Heritage Trust Certificate.

Although some enjoy the purity of the original XK 120 model, it is only in the final 150 S form that the XK reached its full potential of performance and comfort. This car is an excellent example and comes ready to enjoy and impress.
