The latest scratchbuilt effort is a Jaguar Mk 2 kit from Pendle Slot Racing.
The chassis was simple to construct as it's the same as a ready-to-race Jaguar XK120 from manufacturer Ninco, so everything goes together easily and I just had to cut away at some bits at each end. The bodyshell was cast really nicely and sprayed up well, first with primer...
...and then in bright red...
I painted the driver and interior, and detailed all the chrome bits and lights on the car. I'm very pleased with how it turned out, and it races great too - quick with lots of tail slides.
The finishing touch was to give it a set of appropriate numberplates:
Great Blog! A lot of effort and hard work has gone into your Scalextric collection - looks great! Some really unique vehicles. I like the look of the car chassis that rolls on corners. Nice classic Jag here too.
