Jaguar XK120
by Old Pete Thu 31 Dec 2020, 11:50 am
Not a kit you see around much, this was one of Monogram's metal models rerun in styrene, I got mine in a Revell-Germany box.
Detail's not bad, given the 1980-ish tooling. I built mine topless and with full windscreen - an up-top and racing screens were kit options. .
I had to narrow the rear axle to get the rear wheel spats to fit Still not as good as they could be.
Should've spent some more time detailing that engine; the intake needs a wash to knock down that chrome a bit.
Love the headlights!
Thanks for looking!

That's a cool looking Jag', you don't see many built up.
I raced one as a old slot car back in the 60's.
