jaguar special

[randx0]

I have been working on this one for a long long time.all windows have ben reshaped,hood modified ,I am working on a tube chassis .It is s'posed to be a road racer but it may turn into a drag car as that seems to look a little better.

You're killin' me with all these excellent looking builds, Randy. This another one I need to watch.

Thanks! luckily I move at a glacial pace so it should be easy to keep updated.

that is pretty cool. sad to do that to an E-Type, but hey its just a model!

just wondering if youre going to bulge the fenders or if thats already been done and i just couldnt notice it in the photos?

on a real E-Type, the entire front frame section is a separate piece that mounts onto the body shell at its front. you might keep that in mind when you build your chassis, unless you just want to start over with a complete scratch built tube frame. i personally dont have this kit so i dont know how its depicted out of the box.

kool car, keep it up!

Thank you,this is the aurora/monogram xke the frame is depicted just as you describe. and the fenders do have a little flare to them I used the wheel flares from the monogram cobra except the fronts are in the back and vice versa .I will get better pics when I update. "it's the camera"

And I would have no qualms putting a Hemi in a real jag either.
