mecklm Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Wow, you really have a knack for details and finishes that give a realistic feel to your Cobras. Even your progress photos can easily be confused with the real thing sitting in some fab shop. I hope there's a lot more Cobra variations out there because it is fun and inspiring to watch your builds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RancheroSteve Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Final engine bay and interior.I'm loving this one, JC!I wasn't aware of the discrepancy over the blue colors - I had always assumed Shelby's "Viking Blue" was the same as Ford's, which is the color that my '63 Ranchero was when it came from the factory. It was (badly) repainted by the time I got it, but a few chips of the original Viking Blue present themselves from time to time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afx Posted April 5, 2017 Author Share Posted April 5, 2017 Thanks Bill. Five FIA Roadster where built. Each carried a different color nose stripe to help the team identify the cars. 2259 – white (heavily damaged in crash at Sebring ’64 and was scrapped) 2260 – yellow 2301 – maroon 2323 – orange 2345 – white (completed after 2259 was scrapped therefore white stripe reassigned) Even though the Scale Coachwork decals are 1/24 scale I think they fit just fine.

afx Posted April 6, 2017 Author Share Posted April 6, 2017 (edited) Thanks Maxx. Wheels installed. I decided to use the Revellogram 427 Cobra knock-offs. They look great once you strip off the useless chrome plating. Edited April 6, 2017 by afx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
