Prefab model 1/32 car Jaguar 420 Airfix A03401V In the VINTAGE CLASSICS series, Airfix has been reissuing old kits for some time, some of which are over 50 years old. Some of these are truly "obsolete" kits that have long since caught up with time, but some of them are classics that can still be enjoyed today...
Just like the 1968 Jaguar 420!
The kit was released by Airfix just two years after the original was first used in 1966, and at the time, 54 years ago (!), it was certainly a kit worth noting.
I took a look at the box of the current reissue and was curious to see how the Jaguar would perform after such a long time ... We learn at least the absolute minimum about the history of the prototype on the first page of the assembly instructions. Packed in a practical non-slip box... ... we, fashion designers, are greeted by various light gray sprues that evoke a sense of nostalgia as soon as we look at them/ The hood can be open or closed, although I'd go with the latter: when the hood is open, some clearly visible push-out marks should be filled.
