Jaguar S-Type Frua 1966 Metallic Blue by Matrix
While many other coachbuilders had grown to be industrial giants, Frua was still a flexible enough company in the mid 60s to be able to produce one off designs to order. One such was this elegant coupe built for Italian gentleman Francesco Respino. We see the car here as it is today, having been restored in the original light metallic blue but wearing a British registration. For much of the car's life it was finished in a dark green and that is also an option from Matrix (MTX41001-172). Whichever you go for, the models are beautifully finished and make for a unique addition to any Jaguar collection.

About Matrix
From the original creators of the Neo range, this resincast series offers a wide range of mostly road car subjects. Some are very familiar classics but we also see plenty of very rare and usual machines ranging from Maharajah's Rolls Royces to Citroen and Volvo limousines! Overall casting quality is excellent, paint finishes usually to a very high standard and plenty of fine etch used for small trim. Wire wheels on some subjects can be a little unconvincing but otherwise very consistent. Made in China.
