This was a previous puzzle for the car, but it's probably the original car before if gained a remodelled front end after its crash:

There supposedly were three Jaguar XK140 Ghia coupes. This puzzle car with modified front is said to be the 1955 Paris Salon car (chassis 810827DN) which first was slightly modified by Ghia in 1956 and further modified later after a crash, this modification most probably not done by Ghia.
The two tone car from our former puzzle is chassis S814937DN and has a bigger distance between B-pillar and the top of the rear window than the one above.
