My favorite XKE is the 68 and up(?) series with the uncovered headlights and 6 cylinder engine. IMO, that series has a more planted look. This would be a rare kit as it doesn't seem to be available in diecast.
Thanks for this information. Working in publishing must be maddening. I enjoy every hard copy magazine I receive. I probably subscribe to around 7 different magazines over a variety of subjects and I enjoy them all.
