    I didn't scratchbuild any of the interior panels They fit nicely. Some details were removed and re-created by various raw materials.

Finishing
 

I added the carpet by first, applying a masking tape, and then creating the template. I used a sheet of aftermarket self-adhesive carpet kit, but I forgot the name of the manufacturer.

  The silver trim on the center part of the interior was simulated by using Hasegawa's hex mesh sheet. Although it's not accurate, (hex vs circular), it looks very close.
  The gauge details were smoothed, and the fascia was added. Then, I used some details to create the gauges, and they were clear coated. The switches were sheet of plastic.
    The interior panels were installed. I recommend not to cut corners in detailing the interior especially for a convertible or roadster.
    Here's a picture from the back. I touched up some aftermarket gauge decals to make them look more like that of the Jaguar, and they worked great.
    The door and the window roll-down handles were painted with ModelMaster's chrome. I believe it's the best chrome paint for brush painting.
    The radio face was made by first, gluing a small wire on a sheet of plastic to represent the frame, and then the buttons and other details were added.
