Default I need to borrow a series one roadster Body

I’m looking to borrow a dented, rusty, XKE series one rear body shell. In exchange I’ll straighten it out, patch the rust holes, prime, and wax the heck out of it. Then return it. I don’t need hood ( bonnet ) doors or trunk lid. I already have molds for those.

My goal is to make a mold to go racing with. Vintage racing. Most clubs will turn their nose up at Fiberglas bodies but a few will accept it. Especially since I’ll use Jaguar Engine/ Trans/ rear end / suspension etc.

I’m located in Minnesota but willing to pickup and return within a roughly 700 mile radius. I’ll also provide proof of identity, and we’ll discuss quality of work.

I've removed your one word post from today and added location details from your post #4 to your original post #1.
