Jaguar 3.8S Sedan - Pics
Posted by mstanley on Saturday, May 5, 2007 1:41 PM

 

Another beautiful British car from the 1960's. I always felt these were better looking than even the XJ series. Tamiya kit with Floquil gunmetal with clear coat over that. The adhesive on the damn chrome strips had dried up so I had to clean them off individually and attach them with Future. The burl walnut decals in this kit really set off the interior.

Agreed, one of the best looking car in the world in my opinion.

Beautiful build.

Great looking build, I've always loved that model of the Jag and you've really captured it nicely.  One of these days I'm going to build that kit but I think I'll go for a black or dark burgundy finish.

Cheers

Mstanley,
Nice looking Jag, mate.
I've got two of these in my stash - one in the process of being modified to a Daimler (with the 2.5 litre V-8).  Lovely kits of a lovely car.
By the way, this car is a Mk.II, not an "S" type......the "S" had a similar front end but very different rear end.

Cheers, LeeTree
