I just had an idea for an upcoming project. Does anyone know of a kit that came with a Jag rear ? I have an old aurora 1/25 XKE , but it way too small for a 1/24th build.

Revell had an XKE #H-1280 but no idea if the rear end was seperate. I know that someone did make something with it but my mind is shot. Maybe check Dave's show car collection it might say on one of the boxes. ;D ;D

The Buttera kit is 1/25 by revell, the kits by revell with the jag rear all use the buttera chassis 27 T touring, 34 ford hard top and convertible, 27 Delivery and 27 sedan, revell stuck to 1/25, except for the monogram tools that they repop, monogram only has the Jaguar, there is a few import kits that have it, I think it is hasegawa?  ? |

Gunze Sangyo makes a Jag in 1:24 scale. I think that it has the correct rear end (but probably not very detailed). Those show up on eBay from time to time. Just don't bid on the HI-TECH version as it is very pricey and you only need the rear end.
Come to think of it, I might have some parts left over from one of those kits. Maybe I have a spare rear end. I would have to dig through my stash...
Also Revell of Germany made a Jag XK-SS - that might have the correct rear end. Not sure if it is 1:24 or 1:25.
Tamiya also made a 1:24 Jag Mk II Saloon model. I'm not sure what rear end it has.

Thanks for the info, guys. I did have the remains of a revell Jag, but its a 1/25th, and way too small. Peteski, if you have one of those 1/24 Jag rears please let me know !
