Phildaupho Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Congratulations on a fantastic historic racing Cobra replica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afx Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 Superb recreation of the Cobra's first win. I have much of what is needed for this build as well. I was unaware of the availability of the brake scoops though. Must get those as well as the wheels. What brand and shade of red did you use? Tamiya TS-49 Bright Red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afx Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 That's an excellent build and a very interesting bit of history. Who would guess that the first race winning Cobra was painted red? What was Shelby thinking? '63 Cobra's were only available in (3) colors red, white and black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afx Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 Looks awesome! Love the Spaulding! The Spaulding Flamethrower was also in the AMT parts pack motors (I think the hemi). I have the decals for this one but need to finish the Coventry Executor first... Very nice build. Love the detail! Did you just get the parts individually from HRM or did you get the trans-kit for the AMT? Yea, the Spaulding Flamethrower was available in a few kits. I didn't care for them so I built my own. It is very prominent in the engine bay. As for the HRM parts, I bought the parts individually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
