Decided to elaborate on the headlights,as standard it is just the lens so robbing parts from a 250 gto (not that one...) have detailed them a bit.
Cut down trunk lid!
Even though it is aprox 24th it has the guts of a slot car..
Wheelz R done.
Given a squirt of flat green.
Got the grille and steering wheel sorted btw.
A bit of filler!
A mockup video.

Decided to mockup a few parts,they went VERY on nicely!
The ''exhaust''
Steering wheel,lifted off a 56 Ford.
Driver...........
On the real deal the rims are marked Dunlop,so using some tiny decals done my version.
Also the rear lights are small and round,not square!
So the rears are being sanded down a bit.
Forgot to post this pic earlier.
Rounded the r lights off,the white car has Lucas L549s - Morris minor..
Taillamps look like TR-3 and A-H if I remember correctly. (At one point I had the upper lens, lower lens and chrome bezel part numers memorized for MG-B, Sprite and Midget. Sold lots of them. Lucas, the Prince of Darkness. Ah, the good old days...)

4x4 Jag anyone?
Grille and lights in.
Windshield and light covers on.
Dont know if it shows,but I moltowed the screen edge as a frame.
Spencer Mopar FanGreat work Nigel . A magnificent Jag . Still looks like an electrified gecko from the front though . ;-)
LMFAO..
Wonder where you stick the wires?
Fun to read and interesting to watch.
justmike Fun to read and interesting to watch.
Cheers Mike,considering the parts count was aprox 30 (plus add on bits) it came out ok.
G'day, Nigel. You're going alright there, mate, making a simple kit look like so much more. Do you know if a 'traditional' kit of the classic D-Type was ever made? I mean, a Revell or Monogram maybe? My friend Google has not been able to help, except for resin and multi media kits selling for hundreds of dollars, euros, or pounds. Cheers.
Steve
Hi Steve,the only one I am aware of is the Revell xkss,when jag finished with the d type they built a few road cars.
