Hello and welcome to BOAB Models - today it's the 10th anniversary of my wife and I getting married. So to mark the occasion, I have built the our wedding car, converting and improving the Airfix 1/32 E type Series 1 into the Series 3 car which we drove.
In this build I've replaced the wheels, seats, decals, and axles whilst improving the steering wheel, dashboard, roof, grille, bumpers, lights and adding new mirrors, sun visors, hand brake, seat belts, number plates etc
Basically I changed a lot!
The Jaguar E-Type, or the Jaguar XK-E for the North American market, is a British sports car that was manufactured by Jaguar Cars Ltd between 1961 and 1974. Its combination of beauty, high performance, and competitive pricing established the model as an icon of the motoring world. The E-Type's claimed 150 mph (241 km/h) top speed, sub-7-second 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) acceleration, unitary construction, disc brakes, rack-and-pinion steering, and independent front and rear suspension distinguished the car and spurred industry-wide changes.

Congratulations onthe 10 year anniversary, and what a great conversion build, you've really come on well and turned out a lovely little kit, well done. Now, I bet it was your idea for the poor lady to get into that car in a wedding dress :)

Thank you very much! Haha - at least it was bigger than the MGB which we nearly went for. She was jealous that the dress meant she couldn't drive herself!

Love the channel Thomas! I really like the side notes you add. If able, please leave them visible for a longer period. It’s nice to be able to observe your find work and refer to the additional info after enjoying the details.

Thanks very much, Jeff. Yes, you're not the first to ask that and I do try to keep them up for longer. I'll see what I can do for the next one.

Lovely work, Thomas. Very resourceful adapting a Series 1 into a Series III. It's a great improvement over the original kit indeed!

Thank you, Gustavo. I decided on the Airfix over the Revell kit as it seemed like more of a blank canvas to make changes to. The Revell has the wrong engine too!

Many thanks, Richard. Haha - I tried to add ribbon to the wing mirrors like we had but the ribbon was too heavy and pulled them off!

Я бы на руле попробовал бы сзади сделать три выемки, чтобы декаль глубже сзади села на руле, но и так классно вышло 👍
