This new 1:43-scale model is of the 1953 winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Jaguar entered three factory C-Types, and two British drivers, Tony Rolt and Duncan Hamilton, came home in first place with one of the first cars ever to race at Le Mans with disc brakes.
​
The model has been built from a kit by Paddock, largely "from the box", but with some additional detail using my own scratch-built parts. These include new louvred openings, new exhausts, and changes to the interior of the car. The seats have been painted with artist oil paints to resemble real leather.
​
The model was finished in late 2023 and was on display on my stand at Retromobile 2024. It has now been sold, but if you would like a quote for a similar model, please do not hesitate to Contact Me.
