This is an excellently built XJS, not sure what kit was used. I bough this from Ohio's model club members, they were selling the collection of builder who passed away with proceedings going to his wife. Geno and Curt introduced me to sellers, unfortunately I don't remember the name of the builder, perhaps someone here can recognized the model. The rest of the models for sale were hot rods, I really wish I purchased more of them. This Jaguar is just awesome as you can see on the pictures. Enjoy.

It has incredible detail. It is similar to my Tamiya kit XJS but it has identification on the chassis.

Nicely photographed! Thanks.

@geoff-jowett @lu

That's what I thought but wasn't sure, thanks guys! Looks like my model is missing the license plates.
