I just finished up this looong project. I put a Hasegawa V-12 in a Monogram Jag XKE. I also flared the fenders and added wider tires. Scratchbuilt solder headers and aluminum tube fuel injection stacks. It was one of those work on it a while until I got frustrated and then put it up for a while projects. The color is Testors Model Master British Green Metallic. Comments welcome!

Holy shoehorn, batman!!

Very cool build.

do you have a dremel tool?

if so you can take a pointed stone to the tops of those stacks and it should clean them up quite nicely.

That really has the feel of a jag enthusiasts dream car great stance and color the wheels look great I love it .

That has a great look to it. If you do want better injection stacks, Sakatsu from Japan makes them in all sizes and they are beautiful and inexpensive. Best place to order them is Hobbylink Japan hlj.com

Keep up the great work.

Thanks for the comments guys! I would have replied earlier, but we went out of town. I think I'll replace the injector stacks, I didn't realize how bad they looked until I saw them magnified!
