Title: Dual Power Jaguar E
Post by: ysi_maniac on September 04, 2023, 03:16:27 AM

The origin of this project is a Junk article I found in ebay. It is a Revell (USA) model from '60s. It was defective (no windscreen) quite bad built and glued but very firmly painted, a lot of sanding to remove paint :unsure:

I would appreciate if you find any practicality to this two engines Jaguar E. As you can guess, rear engine drives a propeller.

I love the fact that you have to point that out here, like it isn't the default option ;D

Cool! So, if a watercraft with a rear propeller is an 'airboat', this will be a 'aircar'  :smiley:

Is this some type of James Bond car built by Q for his mission to the Everglades?

This reminds me that I passed a lovely British Racing Green E-Type Jag yesterday, on the way to work. Beautiful looking & sounding car! :-*
