  2. Very nice paint and finish Jess.. you nailed it !
  3. #13 Well Ali and Steve did a great job this year on the Cobra... With time to spare ...yeehaw Can't wait to see the rest of the field shape up and meet in New York, and a hefty 40 entrants...Wow!! Sometimes this build is all I get done in a year, thanks to Anthony (disconovaman) for keeping the Cannonball alive and well ? Cheers to all Cannonballers
  4. Built from the Revell GmbH, Sam Feinstein 1:24th kit, put out in 2006. I tried to replicate the Cobra in the movie "Gumball Rally" Great movie I remember seeing in the theatre back in 1976, at 14, I fell in love with that car? I cut out and hinged the doors and the trunk, and added the trunk interior bucket. Added engine wiring and plumbing, as well as front inner fenders, double electric fans up front. I scratched a battery and fuel pumps for the trunk, and added toggles and wire bezels to the dash, hand painted the cibie lights and 427 badges..... ...oh and an ashtray had to be installed just ahead of the shifter ...lmbo ..still makes me laugh..every convertible needs an ashtray... Body paint is water based, craftsmart flat metallic Sapphire Blue covered with Alclad Aqua Gloss Clear, everything else is Tamiya, Testors or Duplicolor. Anyways enough talking here's pics Funny thing about this paint is the colour change under different lighting... There were difficulties with this kit like, no mounting pins, channels, locator spotsfor a solid connection. The body, interior tub, and frame just kinda float ,so ya dry fit dry fit dry fit. All in all a fun build Cheers everyone and stay safe

  6. Very clean build Anders??
  7. It's entirely up to you, it's your build, but..lol if it were mine, I would flip the window, top for bottom and decrease the sail panel to the middle of the wheel arch...$0.02 Cheers
