I came up with the header idea after HRM began issuing the kit so the early versions may not include them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobraman Posted February 23, 2019 Author Share Posted February 23, 2019 Thank you Dann. Itching to paint it but waiting for some better weather here. Been pretty cold and damp here the last few days. I know if I don't wait I will screw up the paint job. It's a 50/50 chance I'll do a good paint job even with ideal conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted February 25, 2019 Author Share Posted February 25, 2019 Made some progress. Got the body painted and decals applied . Body still needs to be cleared . Maybe tomorrow . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vamach1 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Looking good Cobraman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted February 25, 2019 Author Share Posted February 25, 2019 Thanks. Weird thing with the decals is all the photos I see show the King Cobra is in white. The box top and the kit decals are more of a goldish color. I believe the decals should be white, no ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 Three coats of clear applied . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vamach1 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Sure look that way, white letters i.e. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted February 28, 2019 Author Share Posted February 28, 2019 I agree. If you look at my first post it shows the lettering is not white but that is not a photo but rather a rendering on the box top. I do believe they should be white.

Going to go with silver pipes and full chrome on front. I like those last two pics, I never saw them. Thanks wheels are Magnesium, it gets darker with age if they are not polished constantly etc (its actually "corrosion" to an extent).. I actually think it makes a car look meaner with them dark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
