This is great news and I'm really looking forward to them. Hopefully this is just step one in getting updated molds and mechanics of sports cars that helped make the Ninco Classics line so beloved by some of us.

Looking forward to another affordable option for this beautiful classic. I hope they do away with their usual clamshell body/chassis arrangement but that is probably too much to wish for :naughty:

Ditto on the clam shell design. I have the R/M version and while it's quick enough, there isn't much tuneability to it.

Definitely looking forward to this although the Union Jack doesn't do it for me, so I might have to wait around for something else. I have 2 RM's and 2 Ninco's and one Ninco is a strong runner in our pre 70's sports car class so I'm hoping these will be competitive too.

Did you follow the Eagle E-Type link? What a fantasy that is! Imagine building REAL E-Type Jaguars from scratch. They wouldn't have to pay me, just keep me fed and full of beer after work. I could do that for life.

UMM.... Javelin please I have a Etype :angry-tappingfoot:

From the side view shot it looks like this will be another front motor design looking at the louvers toward the front of the chassis. Something similar to the R/M E-type. That's the only way to put a full depth interior in the cockpit.
