Default ERA Jaguar V12 Special

Folks:

Progress has been slow, but I thought I might post some pictures of the ERA-Jaguar V12 Special project. The motor and TKO trans are located, front and rear suspension bolted on with splined hubs and Jaguar XKE knockoffs. So, it's reached the "roller" stage and the next chapter will be developing the body shape. I do not want to copy any particular car, but rather evoke the look of the circa 1958-9 "specials", Recently I traveled down to Delaware to talk to Chuck Hadley about doing a rusteration on my 66 XKE FHC and while there spotted a Devin body up on a shelf in his garage that he has owned since he was 19 (he's now 40+/-). So, we have been chatting about the possibilities...

Jim
