the Real Thing

"Jaguar E-type" is one of the most well-known models produced by British sports car maker Jaguar, founded in 1922. This model was highly regarded at the Geneva International Motor Show in March 1961 for its low-set, streamlined appearance and state-of-the-art mechanics. Series 1, which first went on the market in 1961, sported an inline six-cylinder, 3.8 liter DOHC engine. In 1964, this was upgraded to a 4.2 liter. Various minor changes up until 1971 resulted in the twin-six engine of the Series 3. This model, known in the US as the XK-E, enjoyed high levels of popularity. Although the E-type disappeared from the market in 1975, its curved lines continued to influence designers, and it remained well-loved by car enthusiasts around the world. This paper model is based on the E-typeS1, a car first introduced in North America in 1967, complying with American safety standards of the time. It was known as 11/2 due to its similarity to Series 2. - Canon
