Re: Jaguar XK-120

Very nice indeed!

What was the paint on that? Enamel? I have a Jag XJS that I want to do in that colour.

Re: Jaguar XK-120

Excellent!

I'd love to know more about what you did with the wheels/where you sourced them. Thanks in advance

Re: Jaguar XK-120

Thanks for the attention and comments.
The body was painted with Tamiya British Green spray. The wheels and tires came from AMT spare parts models. The kit does not bring competition decals, the belt on the hood was done with tape and auxiliary lights came from a Monogram Bugatti 35

Sorry but I noticed that you are in Brasil, where did you buy Tamyia Spray cans?

Re: Jaguar XK-120

Slash, é quase certo que na HOriginal ainda se encontre umas poucas latas Tamiya, incluindo esse verde e o preço é baixo.
Infelizmente tenho outros compromissos nos dias do evento em Campinas, mas desejo sucesso a todos.
Abraço
Aldo
