Thanks! Maybe those bumper deletes or "jack points" I could use on my cobra, though I don't think those would would fit on my 1/16 scale cobra
-
That's neat! Where might a guy like me be able to go to get said bumper deletes?
-
Its actually a stock, right out of the box build, no kitbashing whatsoever. On the other hand there was 3 models manufactured on the same exact chassis (general Lee, 73 street charger, and a 73 Richard petty charger)
-
Absolutely beautiful! Did you get the bumper deletes from the kit?
-
Young buck here just to say a few things about myself. First off, I'm only 17... But I have been building since before time itself!... Maybe? I can't remember, its been a long time.
-
Model lessons with gumball, if it doesn't fit... Make it fit with a dremel tool!
-
Lol, yes the engine wouldn't fit without removal of the fan. I hope to other find a electric fan somewhere without ripping apart a perfectly good model, and/or do it the fun way and makeshift my way to a electric rad fan.
-
Filter work? Sorry bud I just got a really crappy phone that takes ironically good photos.
-
From Hamilton.
-
Update #2 almost done guys, just the trans and the fan.
-
The ideas for the fan are great, I'll have to try them. But right now my most pressing issue is the transmission.
-
Awesome! Thankyou! I will have to check that out. In the meantime I may just use the computer fan and/or just leave it as is until I'm able to order it in.
-
I sadly dont have a 40s Williys.l that I can rip apart. I was also thinking of stripping one out of an old computer, problem is that it may not fit properly.
-
Lol sounds like you know me all to well!
-
I have to build the fan housing yet. The engine wouldn't fit unless I got rid of the fan. So I decided that maybe an Ellectric rad fan may be cool. I'm still actually contemplating whether or not I like the fan idea. Maybe you guys can let me know if I should pitch the idea, or attempt to make a fan housing?
-
Yeah its a shame. But at least it east my Shelby Cobra kit! The "Lee" is easy for me to replace anyways, because just so happen to own 9 of the same kit.
-
Thanks!! I'm kinda new to the whole weathering techniques. Maybe in the future I'll do some more rat rods!!!!
-
I'm not completely sure. I will have to take another look at the box. All I know is that it came with 3 cars, two engines, one hood, and one set of chrome. Its also older then most of my models, so it may not be a Monogram or a.Revell.
-
Sorry about that

A 427 Shelby cobra is one of the most beautiful cars ever. I have to admit that this is one of my most favorite kits ever.
-
Amazing! Fantastic engine detail, well done!
-
Built this a few years ago. I ended up displaying it in a mode l shop near where I live. Unfortunately the guy who owned the shop ended up closing, and stole 8 of my models including this one. Today all I have is pictures, but at least I hope its under somebody's glass somewhere.
-
Lol just make a few T shirts.
-
I started it when I was 6, then it sat for a while, then I moved. 11 years after I started it I pulled it back out. It needs a little work still but I hope to get it back together before next year.
