lol the guy has kept all the original jag and modified the roof on it no Woopsie you i was like oh its a hq then they guy explained it all pretty good body work i do have to admit

Hey Christian, just modiifed your post so the pic would display properly...

Interesting build, just a shame a HQ had to be wrecked to build it...

Haha. From blokes who owns a HQ you think you could spot a HQ roof from a HK HT HG body style...

Thanks hq and yea I own a hq and I thought it was odd but she's a quee and very sad too see a quee chopped should of put the front on the quee

Had me checking the pic again Jon! I didn't spot that the first time... Just reading the posts!!

New Breed? This thing has been around for ages. It used to be white, and yes it's a boat anchor roof not HQ.

Just a quick question guys, i thought the HK-T-G van roofs where the same pressing as the HQ-WB ones, am i wrong again?

Cheers Mark

The pressings in the side panels are different, where the windows are usually cut in.
I will let the KTG experts fill in any other differences...

Sorry i should have said above the gutter line.

Cheers Mark

Yeah Mark. HD Through to WB are the same shape gutters up. HD to HG are the same top tail gates. HQ to WB have an extended version of the same top gate. HD to WB ran same tail gate windows...

Cheers Jon

Well he might have just finished painting it? But As I said this thing has been about for quite some years, and it is a boat anchor roof not HQ.

I spent ages trying to find a photo of that last night. I knew I had seen it on here before, and knew it was an old build, but I just couldn't find it! Thanks Smooth.

It's a hard one in my eyes. I have never really been a fan of the Series I, Series II Jag front ends. But I do like the Series III.
You could fit a Series III front to this, but then the boat anchor side panels date the rest of the car making it a mismatch. Whatever the case like/dislike the car has had some serious work and will always turn heads.

I'm glad it still exists. Just not one I would class as "correct". Like I said, each to their own.
