This car was owned by Lindsay Tutt of Boronia, Victoria, in the 1970's and he raced it at a club meeting at Calder in 1976. It's listed as such in Roger Paine's E Type Register document (my copy is from 1991). I bought a 4.2 FHC from Lindsay in 2014 and it came with two engines - it's original one, in pieces, and RA3814-9, fitted and running. I recommissioned the car and have done about 11000 miles in four years, mainly on Jaguar Car Club (Vic) runs, and local use. It goes well (Winton sprints!) despite being leaky - it was stored by Lindsay from 1984 until I bought it in 2014, so the seals have seen better days. If the owner of 861298 would like his car to be reunited with its original engine, he/she should contact me at long.andrew.c@edumail.vic.gov.au. I intend to sell the engine when my original engine is rebuilt.
