A best friend and I saw this movie when in our mid teens. It had a strong impact on both of us. I would love to have shared this re-creation with him, but he sadly has passed. But I still have many good memories of our friendship, including our appreciation of this movie. Good job, guys.
I can't believe they really drove that car off the cliff. 😭 And then even a camera did not work properly or something like that and they put in that still of it falling off the cliff for a few seconds. Amazing car. Since I watched the movie it would be my dream car but sadly the E-Types are rare and very expensive
The original movie car seems to have used a 2 seater for the starting point. It's obvious from the smaller door glass viewed in the original movie. This "replica" seems to be built from a 2+2, larger side windows. Close but no banana.
They did use the 2+2 in the movie in the movie, but, I agree this close but not as elegant in shape. The top on the recreation is too straight, the movie version is slanted down to the back. You can see that the window on the recreation has a weird gap at the back top corner, This would be closed if the top slanted down. That is my ONLY complaint on this recreation.
The car is garaged in the greater Phoenix, AZ area. No current plans for events and touring at least for the rest of the year. Two years ago we had the car to the mid-west for Jaguar Concours de' Elegance shows and most events and shows over the last few years have been in the Western States. There may be a chance of another tour next year, we'll see. Thanks for your comments!
My dream car. I have watched that movie at least 30 times and still do. I would have liked to win the lottery to get one. I like to be different. Until recently could not find the same ‘’coup de cœur’’ for a car. Then it happened in November 2019........I have ordered a Cybertruck. Not as stylish but different and noticeable. Cannot wait to race a young man in a F-150 or even a Porsche.......... and look at his face when he realizes that an old lady is driving! Enjoy my dream car! Would love to have a picture of me in it! That would be as close to my dream as possible. When the borders reopen might have the chance to see it. Wow...... amazing car. Bravo! Quelle merveille!
Proportions of the rear are different than the movie version. The top on the original is sloped downward in the rear and appears more streamlined than the replica. Look at the scroll -work and see the difference.
I have been comparing the car from the movie and this replica and i think they did a great job but you can see that the doors on the replica are way longer than the one on movie and the gutters dont follow the door line like the one in the movie also the roof line is higher on the replica ...
WOW!!!! What a brilliant job, I truly appreciate your craftsmanship; Here in the UK 🇬🇧 if I ever win the lottery, I will make you an offer you can’t refuse 😎
Wow, I never realized it would have become an expensive project but u didn’t cut any corners ( no punt intended, 😜). It’s a good thing you took it upon yourself to do this project! 👌🏽👏🙏 P. S.

But the point is, it's only "called" a recreation; but the people who did the so-called recreation weren't paying attention to the actual car from the film. Yes, it was destroyed, but its features are fully on display in the film. So why this travesty?

Wow this is pretty amazing as Iv always loved Harold and Maude for its positive message and sound track and thought how cool it would be to find a old Jag to do this with. By the way, what kind of car did they get the top from?

The car is garaged in the greater Phoenix, AZ area. No current plans for events in your region at least for this year. Two years ago we had the car to the mid-west for Jaguar Concours de' Elegance shows and most events have been in the Western States.
A replica is NOT a "one of a kind". It's the second of a kind. Which means the original is not the only one of a kind anymore, it's merely the first of two of a kind. or something...... No, wait. If the original was destroyed in the movie then the replica IS now the only one of its kind. I guess.... I'M SO CONFUSED!
Since as you said, you regret building it since it was so expensive, maybe it would’ve been better if it didn’t get built? Harold and Maude is not Batman or the Munsters. Hardly anyone out there would even understand this reference. It does a disservice to this exceptional classic wonderful movie. I don’t know for sure, but I assume Bud Cort would agree with me. And if Ruth Gordon was still alive, she probably would also.
Pretty cool. It's a great movie, I'm glad to see that the hearse mobile lives on.
It was pretty cool that this vehicle came to Albuquerque!

I've been wanted to do this (make the Jaguar Hearse) for decades. Thanks for doing it!!!
That is pretty cool. This is my favorite movie of all time! Now, I have to see this car in person.
I saw this today at the Jaguar car show in Victoria Canada, it's quite a work of art, but then again so was the starting material.
Thank you for brilliant work on this car and it helps keep this movie alive to new generation

Before I go, I swear I'm buying this off him! This is the best thing ever. Nice work guys!
I would die for this car. I loved the movie and the car totally got me.
Thank you for posting this! Loved the movie and THAT CAR!! Just amazing to see the great work that was done!
My god I would cry tears of joy if I saw this in person, such a beautiful homage.
Please bring it to Hot August Nights 2018 in Reno, NV.
As an Undertaker, and an H+M fan, I'd love to have this, or at least see it. Thanks for posting this video. Awesome.

It was such an honor to see this car in person.
Proportions of the rear are different than the movie version. The top on the original is sloped downward in the rear and appears more streamlined than the replica. Look at the scroll -work and see the difference.
It's because, despite what Mr. Roberts claims, the original was built on a 2 seat Roadster, and this one was built on a 2+2 Coupe.
I have been comparing the car from the movie and this replica and i think they did a great job but you can see that the doors on the replica are way longer than the one on movie and the gutters dont follow the door line like the one in the movie also the roof line is higher on the replica ...
