BUILD INSTRUCTIONS

AGORAMODELS JAGUAR E-TYPE
2
Spare screws are included with each part. Occasionally, you may be instructed to keep spare or
unused screws for a later stage. Keep these spares in a safe place and label them correctly.
Please make sure you don’t mix up the screws. They look quite similar, but the threads do vary
slightly. Using the wrong screws may damage the parts.
When securing parts together using multiple screws, fit each screw loosely to ensure all the
parts are correctly aligned before gently tightening them firmly, but not overtight, in the order
in which you placed them.
The screwdriver can be magnetized by stroking it with a magnet (fridge magnet, etc.) enabling
it to hold the screws and make assembly easier.
If a screw is tight going into a metal part, do not force it as you may shear the head off. Remove
it and put a tiny smear of Vaseline, soap or light oil on the thread. That will lubricate it and make
it easier to drive home.
During the course of this build, you will receive many pieces that you will assemble immediately
– following the instructions in the corresponding stage – and other pieces that you should store
safely to one side, for use in future assembly stages.
Left and Right! When building your Jaguar, the left or right hand side refers to each side as you
are sitting in the car.
WARNING: Some parts are assembled using magnets. These magnets can cause serious injury
if they are swallowed. Keep away from children. If you suspect a magnet has been swallowed,
seek medical help straight away.

well as assembling and attaching
the cover for the right headlight.
The bonnet grille and catch are also

Take the bonnet assembly from Stage 73. Align the bonnet grille and
catch with the two holes on the underside of the bonnet as shown.
Next align the valance with the bonnet as shown. The three screw
holes of the valance fit over the corresponding holes located on the
bonnet (arrows).
Fit the bonnet grille and catch into place, then secure in place with 2x
AM09 screws.
Fit the valence in place then secure to the bonnet using 3x AM15
screws.

Now take the right headlight surround and glass cover. Note the
three lugs (arrows) and tabs (circled) for fitting the parts together. We
recommend test fitting the two parts before proceeding.
When happy with the fit, apply a small amount of PVA glue to the
surround. This should stop the glass popping out after the headlight
cover has been put in place.

Firmly press the two parts together so that the fit is flush and allow
the glue time to dry.
Before pushing the headlight cover in place, we recommend cleaning
the inside with a cloth to remove any traces of dust and fingerprints
from the glass.

Place the stone guard mesh into the recessed area of the stone guard
frame as shown.
Take the stone guard and align it with the underside of the bonnet
as shown. Fit into place, so that the curved section of the stoneguard
sits in the slot on the bonnet (arrow). The protruding bars (circled in
picture 4) should sit either side of the vertical edges.
Secure the mesh in place using 4x AG01 screws.
The stone guard should look like this once in place.

Before fitting the front underpanel, ensure that the wires from the
sidelights are tucked into the openings for them provided by the
bonnet (circled).
Align the underpanel with the bonnet and fit into place. Don’t worry if
the small plugs at either end do not remain in place for now.
Take the front underpanel. Note that on each end, there is a small plug
that corresponds to a small hole in the bonnet (arrow). Use these as a
guide when aligning the underpanel.
Take 2x AM15 screws and drive them into the screw holes as shown.

plugs push inside their holes.

Take the wheel centre and note that there is a small notch that aligns
with a corresponding tab on the jig (arrows). The jig is used here to
assist with building the wheel and will be removed towards the end of
the wheel-build.
Take the wheel rim from Stage 78 and align the hole on the outer
edge with the pin on the jig (arrows).
Fit the wheel centre onto the jig.
Fit the wheel rim onto the jig, pressing firmly to lock the rim into

Before you begin, note that the inner edge of the spoke retainer
ring has a series of ‘teeth’, alternating in size (see picture 6). Each
spoke has a right-angled tip, and a flat head on the opposite end.
Use your tweezers to thread the spokes and hook them into place.
Start by threading a spoke, leading with the tip, through a hole in
the innermost row of holes in the wheel centre. (Note: The spokes in
Stages 78 & 79 are the same.)
Then take another spoke and thread it through the next hole in the
innermost row of the wheel centre. Pull the spoke through the hole
and hook the tip around the next ‘wide’ tooth.
Pull the spoke through the hole and hook the tip around the nearest
‘wide’ tooth that gives the spoke a comfortable fit.
NOTE: The key to fitting the spokes correctly is to adjust the tension on
each spoke as you fit it by gently pushing and/or twisting the wheel
centre with your thumb.
Fit the third spoke in the same way, and continue all the way around
the wheel until you have filled all the holes on the inner row of the
wheel centre. Check that they are hooked around the wide teeth. If
they are not hooked around wide teeth, the spokes will not fit and the
wheel parts will not fit together at the end of the build.
