Very old AMT Jaguar E Type coupe

Very old AMT 1/43rd scale kit of the Jaguar E Type coupe. Has a good shape but the headlamps are not clear, which is a very prominent feature of the real thing. I drilled out the headlamps and used plastic q-tip sticks cut at an angle to provide the sockets. Finish is MM Guards red thinned with lacquer thinner. Dried overnight!

Fini. Used craft glue to fill in headlamp sockets. I think I paid $3.00 for this kit. It is worth that just for the wire wheels.
