Hi guys, i have just started a new proyect. Its the well known Mercury from the movie COBRA

I will use the Mercury from Revell with some modifications in the body, bumpers, etc.

Thanks for your feedback and suggestions.

were did you get the hood scoop for the hood I'd like to do that Mercury also please keep all of us posted on this one!!

The AMT Ford 49 Coupe that i built came with two scoops. I used the second one with some scratch styrene to conform it to the new hood.

Very cool Idea. I was thinking about this myself at some point. What engine are you planning?

Mmmm, im still thinking about it, and how to adapt the NOS system.

I remember around the time this movie came out I think Hot Rod magazine did a small article about the car but I just did a search on the internet and couldn't find it and my stack of old magazines is long gone. Nice start on a cool movie car, can't wait to see the rest.

Awesome car. Remember the Hotrod issue, the car had a small block chevy with a B+M 144 supercharger with a nitrous kit also! One of my favorite movie cars. Great idea!

After some researching i decided to completely modify the hood scoop and made it from scratch styrene.
I think this is more accurately with the movie car.
