I've got one of those - and I'm selling it!

Andy from the Stourbridge area (UK) saw the article on the brand new kit and responded:

Wow, a brand new kit. Is it possible to get a copy of the build manual?
I am selling a completed one - see my ebay ad"

I can't download the pics from Ebay but take a look as it doesn't look as though it needs a great deal of work and is a gift at the moment! It's the same colour scheme as the brand new kit - Coffee and Cream.

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.

They're not all gorgeous!

This is rather a sad looking VW rear engined SS replica. I suspect some of the panels are shared with the Carisma.

I would very much like to get a hold of a folding windscreen like that for "Carrie".

Before anyone asks, it is not for sale as the owner hopes to restore it.
