You're right, it doesn't look like any Jaguar I ever saw. The guy seems to
be proud of it, though, since he posted 40 pictures, many of them
duplicates. One of my pet peeves is people who advertise kit cars using the
name of the real car which they purportedly resemble. Every week one sees
"1929 Mercedes SSK" ads, which in reality are also VW-based gimcracks. I
don't mind people having fun assembling these vehicles, it's marketing them
as "classics" that is distasteful.
