Most beautiful car ever
Indeed!
I remember building a rather large scale kit of the Jaguar E style as a kid, have always been a great admirer of the style since. I certainly agree, it is a beautiful automobile.
I don’t remember what the kit was, but it was red.
Your slot car version is very cool! [Y]
A little hard to drive ! https://youtube.com/shorts/GGNFyweD1Qw?feature=share
Monogram in 1/8 scale.
that was a great model.
The bonnet opened, the front suspension worked.
I did too, it might have been Monogram that put it out when the Big T and Big Deuce came along. Not sure actually. 1/8 scale if it’s like the one I built. I don’t remember much of the build except I think it had working front suspension. I remember more of the Deuce, I was a year or two older, painted it black, built it full fendered and put in working lights. And that’s about all I remember of either one . The deuce was impressive but 1/1 and girls were becoming more impressive lol ! No clue how I survived all that except their truly is God .
Enzo Ferrari called the E Type the most beautiful car ever. Case closed.
You should check out the new tool Revell kit, both coupe and convertible.
So true!
Monogram was ricocheting about in what’s left of my mind, Bill. Thanks for confirming. it was indeed a great model.
From what I remember, it was molded in red and that was the final finish on mine…but I’m not positive. I think I messed those big 'ol headlight covers up around the edges by using plastic tube cement.
Might have been red, I may or may not have chanced painting it, not sure. The Deuce I know I did in Testors gloss black spray can, I sort of remember painting it in the basement of my parents house. I recall painting and the finished model but not the build itself. I know I put in working lights because I remember them shining in my room with the lights off in the room.
