Raul_Perez Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 That turned out real nice!! I'll second that!! If I'm not careful, you guys are going to get me back into building sports cars!!
CAL Posted March 11, 2008 Author Posted March 11, 2008 (edited) thanks, this is the most prolific i've been in years 2 builds already this year, probably hasn't been since the 90s since I built this much. It's not perfect, but I am pretty happy with the way it turned out. More importantly once again I learned or relearned a lot. I knocked the windshield frame off twice so it's pretty much glue globbed on with expoxy now. Note to self next time pin the frame. I still need to decal it when my K. Marks decals show. Sports cars is where it's at baby I can't wait for the Hase Ferrari 250... just in time for my birthday. Luck for me my wife thinks it's cute. She is funny that way. I bought new kit for several weeks in a row, filling out my Ferrari selection ya know 550, 512, 612, 430, 599 even a XK 120 Jaguar - bring home a C6 LeMans Corvette and the **** hit the fan. Oh well, she's not a big fan of Corvettes, "why do you want such an ugly car like that?" Not mad because I bought another kit, though, just mad becuase it was a Corvette, she likes Porsche, Ferrari and British Sports cars. Edited March 11, 2008 by CAL
RatRod Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Not perfect? What's not perfect about a polished, bright red 427 Cobra..... Looks like a nice clean well built model to me man, great job!!!
m408 Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 Awesome job Cal. Sure wish that I could build something that "not perfect".
outlaw035 Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 very nice cal...raul DONT DO IT.....LOL....neal
Daniel Peterson Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 A Cobra always gets my attention, CAL...and especially a nicely executed example like this one! Lookin' mighty fine!
CAL Posted March 15, 2008 Author Posted March 15, 2008 thanks, There is something sexy about a 427 Cobra. I got to drive one once, driving one is a whole other experience. I am still waiting on my KM decals, though.
Tony T Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 One of my favourite cars! What did you use for the red paint? It looks really great!
CAL Posted March 15, 2008 Author Posted March 15, 2008 One of my favourite cars! What did you use for the red paint? It looks really great! Thanks, it's just Tamiya Italian Red with Future over it.
