Harold Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 Here's on I finished last night. It's an old Jaguar that I found at Dean's in Owosso over the summer. Even though it's a bit undercooked in a few areas (no wipers and a few missing trim moldings). I'm not sure of the source, but I replaced the plastic tires with some AMG style wheels and some real tires. I filed off the telephone that was on the armrest into nothingness and replaced the clunky, oversized gear shift for the custom piece from a '53 Studebaker.
peekay Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 As a Jag fan I've often wondered about this kit but have never seen one built before.The Hasegawa kits are certainly superior but nevertheless you've built a fine looking model there.
Harold Posted December 13, 2016 Author Posted December 13, 2016 Thanks. I liked the subject matter, and I'm never one to turn down an interesting snapper.
Lunajammer Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 I fell in love with these the first time I saw one on a poster. I think it looks great.
Perspect Scale Modelworks Posted December 14, 2016 Posted December 14, 2016 Nice Jag. The AMG Pentas look good on it.
espo Posted December 14, 2016 Posted December 14, 2016 Nice clean build. I didn't even know that that car was ever kited.
sjordan2 Posted December 14, 2016 Posted December 14, 2016 (edited) Nice clean build. I didn't even know that that car was ever kited. Also in 1:16 scale by Entex and boxed by others. Usually expensive. Edited December 14, 2016 by sjordan2
Grant Posted December 15, 2016 Posted December 15, 2016 Used to own the 1:1 ... Very nice! Have any interior shots?
geetee66 Posted December 15, 2016 Posted December 15, 2016 Nice to see an old kit brought to life!The wheel swap has given it a more menacing look.I love it (Seen plenty of these 1:1's in the UK, but they're rare now. Rust, running costs and spares, killed them)
RAMBENNA Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 sweet , looks great. I have been trying to do one those for ever, yours turned out nice
