I thought the original ones had aluminium bodies or is that just the tub??
 
Well done Drew/Stu.
I know it is always hard to judge work on photo's but you certainly inspire confidence. If your work wasn't up to scratch the owner of the jag wouldnt have left it in your capable hands.
I'm glad your business is a success story in these crazy times. The fittest will survive.

The garage that i did my apprentiship at had lots of jags,mk2s,mk10/420gs,xks and of course e types 8) in best michael cane voice!! did you know that each one is hand finished and you cant fit doors or bonnet of one onto anouther with out filling ect as each one is individual.glad i only had the mechanicals to do ;)
 
Some of the things I see how people have bodged them over the years it's unreal I guess it was todo with when they went though there cheap stage or people nowadays trying to make a quick penny ripping someone else off but better till Friday at work I was fitting up at door on a e type an it looked like it had a new door (some repo thing) was happy with that but come to fit it the skin had been put on the frame wrong so had to cut it off an reskin it again then it was perfect

That looks very nice!
The after shots on the rear corner is that straight out of the gun or has it been flatted and polished?
What Laquer do you use?
