Dinkum Classics

When I visited Australia about 20 years ago , I tried to get Australian made models.

Dinkum Classics made quite a few Jaguars. Here are some examples.

 Both Dinkum Classics and Micro Models of Australia made Jaguar XK120s. Neither company added the windshield.

My favourite!

The Jaguar XJS Racing version was another that I loved.

I'm not sure where I got the reflection image above but it is well done.

story of Dinkum Classics. They no longer produce as I believe there was a fire in their factory some years back. Most of the time they are listed at prices no one will pay. Very rarely is one put to market. You did well with those David.
