(Background knowledge) The (original) #Jaguar #SType (1963-68) was not the official successor of the Mk 2, but went pretty close. Officially built solely as 4d-sedan in 24.993 units, #Frua once made a #Coupé in '66, that might have been forgotten by now.

BMW 2800 GTS Coupé (E9) '1969 A very stylish Frua design that didn't get enough interest. It remained a "single vehicle" and #Frua sold it to a Spanish collector in 1971. Was later bought by #BMW Classic and restored it in it's original colour by 2019 Is this too far for BMW's consumer preference?

“The Car of Kings” A sports car commissioned for Royalty, only 34 ever built, Maserati 5000 GT Frua Coupe ‘1962 #Frua designed the bespoke grand tourer which featured 325hp and had a Phillips record player, wire wheels, and a leather interior. All-around Girling disc brakes, the same used on Aston Martin’s and #Jaguars. The race grade braking had matched the racing engine it was equipped with, cooled down much faster and didn’t fade in high speeds

That's it. These were the last combat icons for my #EGA #FRUA total conversion. The designs are from the original game, the necromancer (bottom left) is nearly one-by-one pixel mapping. That guy has a killer design. #DnD #pixelart.
