Whoa there a tic Mike...

...so your taking the classic, beautiful and gracefull lines of Jaguar ... and with your years of automotive industry experience.. and knowhow .. just shove muscular arches , bulges , big fat racey looking tyres - as you see fit ... and I suppose shove one of those loud big block American V8 engines under the 'hood' somewhere ..

..to make your own ' Trans-ular' or 'Jag-Am' or 'Am-ular-Gt1' thingy..

I LOVE it !!

more pics please

Kolb clay is over laminated pink foam sheets. When you see the car up close, it still has much of the Jag character albeit on steroids. Haven't decided on the engine yet. Would love to do a V-12 with aftermarket FI. But I would also like to have a lot of easy power like a LS engine. We will have to wait to see if I can get some donated powertrain. I have been documenting the build in an effort to get a magazine article.

That looks filth, reminds me a lot of the early sports sedans that used to race here in Oz, massive wheels with massive guards.
I like,

Cheers John
