One-off, 1:43-Scale, Super-detailed, Fully-opening, Hand-built Model of the Jaguar XJ13 Prototype

My latest model is a one-off, fully-opening, super-detailed, 1:43-scale model of the Jaguar XJ13 Prototype, which Jaguar developed with a V12 engine to race at Le Mans in the mid-1960s. Only one car was built by Jaguar as the project was shelved, and it went into storage.  It reappeared in the early 1970s for a publicity shoot for the E-Type, but suffered a crash and was put back into storage.  The car was subsequently rebuilt and is now in display at the British Motor Museum in the UK. 

I have used a Paddock kit as the base to create the model but I have transformed it into a fully-opening, super-detailed model with engine using my own scratch-built parts, notably the opening doors and the front cover louvers, which are fully opened.

​

The model was completed in late 2025 and will be on display at Retromobile 2026.
