Another that slipped the forum from last year! After my first attempt at a claas jaguar 75 I was keen to make this one better. A friend of mine and fellow collector was keen to get his hands on a 75E so I agreed to build it him. Completely underestimated the labour as this is 100% handmade. His budget didnt allow it to be as detailed as I wanted it but still crammed allot in looking back, and it all actually moved the drawbar and spout etc. Anyway here it is... I will definitely make another as there was parts I wasnt 100% happy with. But then again I am very critical of my own work if I'm being honest,  overall it looks good and I was fairly pleased so I cant complain.

Brilliant work there Sam, lots of detail and very tidy. 

Cheers Fellas appreciate the kind words. You should see the 85E if you think this is a fair chopper. That baby has a perkins v8 on her back. Youd soon be up the field with her.

I bet that sounded rather nice.

Wow, excellent work! Very good painted and a lot of details! Do you have pictures from the original machine? I couldn’t find pictures of a “self” propelled Jaguar 75E. :)

Thank you very much, yes I'll put some pics up. I have used a 60e about 2 years ago, there genuine claas machines I believe.

Deutz air cooled motor I think. Fair old machine mate. The 85e is far more impressive but I could literally find about 3 pictures of one and they wasnt great angles to even consider building one.

May be you can fix it!? But I think it could be difficult in this state, isn’t it?

Yeah it's not fixed in place you can pop it off and spin it around in a few seconds luckily as I made it able to rotate
