Thanks Guys!

Sorry guys, you need to wind it on to 8 minutes for the Jags, it was the shortest clip I could find.

Old English movie, car chase 13 minutes long. Mark 2 jag and S-type jag Peter Yates did the Bullitt car chase after this one!

Mostly out of box, just lowered as far as I could without major surgery. The intake manifold is a bit of a joke, but it's still a nice kit to build. BMW rattle can black, just polished out. Hope you like it guys.

Thanks guys.

That's the one,

It's the old Tamiya Jaguar Mk 2 Scott. The wheels are beautiful, walnut decals for the dashboard, chrome 'transfers' for the coachline, mine wouldn't stick though if you find a new one it would be better. Paint is Vauxhall Sovereign gold (GM colour) cleared and polished. Thanks for looking in.

It was repopped last year I think Jeremy.

Old kit, nice though.

Ever heard a Triumph Stag? Sweetest V8 ever.

I looked for the instruction sheet everywhere Jeremy, but no joy. Any chance of you taking a few pics of it, doesn't need to perfect. Overfinch in England used to stick 350 Chevys into those things back in the day, The 3.5 litre is actually the old Buick 215 all alloy engine.

Does it have the 3.5 litre V8, and full 4WD chassis?

Never knew that existed, any chance of more pics please?

Many thanks Gentlemen, I think I just got lucky, lol It was painted a very light gold, almost silver, than given some semi gloss black, which was just lightly sanded back, to give it a worn look. Everyone without exception who has actually seen it has said 'It's from the Waltons' The 5 window got similar treatment, sort of a rat rod with new mechanical bits. New paint won't make it go faster, so spend the money on the engine!

This is what's left over depending on what way you build the amt kit. Just a bit of fun.

I had a good teacher, Geoff showed me how to paint and polish

It's Ford Wedgewood blue, probably a euro colour, no idea if you guys got it over there, just a rattle can I liked the colour of

Old amt kit,I lowered the front end using the stock springs to use the stovebolt, but I can't help putting in the blown 427. Body painted and polished, the V8 still fits in with the low front end, just mocked up, the rear axle needs to be narrowed too. I'm getting there slowly, not much room for the headers to come out. LOL.

Thanks Bill, when the Roadster arrives, I'll take some pics

That's nice! When the Roadster gets here, I'll see if there's any chance the body fits the 5 window chassis, Thanks guys.

No worries Andy, It's strange what we get over here, for example, I can't get a rat roaster yet which is out for a while, but I got the new repop of the old Thames panel van Pie Wagon almost as soon as it was listed. It all adds to the fun

Not easy to find over here, I have the 5 window, and another same roadster coming soon at a good price. So if there is an answer to the actual question i'd be grateful.

I've built a 32 Roadster, nice kit if you put some effort into it, but it's not really possible to build a highboy without major surgery. The 5 window can be built without fenders as it has a chassis and seperate fenders. The question is can I kit bash the two of these easily to make a highboy Roadster? The roadster says 1/24, the 5 window is 1/25 but the fenders seem to be the same length. Thanks for any help guys.

I've eyeballed some of Geoffs cars, the pics don't do them justice. Where did you get the spots from?
