BUILD INSTRUCTIONS

AGORAMODELS JAGUAR E-TYPE

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.

Lay the body assembly on a protective surface, then align the right
body door frame trim with it as shown, noting the two screw holes and
rectangular notch in the trim.
Next take the driver’s door and locate the screw hole lugs on the

For this stage you’ll need the body assembly and the engine assembly.
You’ll also need the left passenger door from Stage 13 and the
dashboard from Stage 64. Place the body on a soft cloth or similar to
protect the paintwork during assembly.
Fit the two screw holes and rectangular notch over the corresponding
parts of the body and press firmly into place. Note that the screws
(circled, inset) can get in the way, so take care when fitting the trim.
Align the screw holes and notch as you did with the door frame trim
from the previous stage.
Next take the passenger’s door and locate the screw hole lugs on the
hinge. Align the lugs with the corresponding holes on the outside of
the body as shown.

Drive the AM05 screws with the bushes into the two central holes of
the windshield frame.
As you fit the dashboard, push the steering wheel and steering
column shaft together as shown. You may need to adjust the
alignment as you push to connect the column and shaft completely.
Make sure the wire from the dashboard leads through the opening
(inset, circled).
Next, take the dashboard and locate the two holes for securing it to
the body. The column from the steering wheel needs to align with the
column that controls the front wheels – ensure the D-shaped plug and
hole are oriented the same way before fitting (inset).
With the dashboard fitted in place, secure it with 2x AM01 screws.
