2 more 'Cream Cracker' SS 100 replicas for sale in US

Cream with brown wings and a 4 cylinder Ford engine in Coconut Creek, Florida. Made by Antique and Collectibles (They may have supplied the original moulds and chassis for the Carisma Century though I could well be be wrong - someone please put me out of my misery and give me the correct provenance for the Carisma!!) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Jaguar-Jaguar-SS-100-SS-100-Manufactured-Replica-Convertible-sports-car_W0QQitemZ230403325217QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Cars_Trucks?hash=item35a51bbd21#ht_500wt_924
Cream with brown wings again but this time with a rear mounted newly rebuilt VW engine in Cleveland, Ohio. It is advertised as needing tlc and it certainly has a patina about it.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Replica-Kit-Makes-Jaguar-SS100-ASVE-1937-Jaguar-SS100-ASVE-Replica_W0QQitemZ130346703968QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Cars_Trucks?hash=item1e5944dc60#v4-35
This seems to be the most popular colour scheme by far for these replicas in the States. I'm not aware of any original SS100's having two tone paintwork although you could order them in the colour of your choice. Red seems to be the most popular choice in the UK.
