Great to see another one under way! If I may offer one piece of advice, while you still have plenty of "wiggle room"and easy access, trial fit the radiator and shave the hose and front X frame until the hose goes through it. There is no way in the world it fits as is, and the sequence they'd have you attach it in won't work even after the trimming!

I start this kitt around 2 year ago, ony body work done. And now is time to get it done. :)

Another Cobra. Cool,can't wait to see how it goes. 

It goes Wagon!!! :D

I WAS SURPRISED THAT SOME 427s were 428s but not with side pipes.

Probably this isone of those 428, I'm not planning to put the sidepipes.

You have my attention also Briz! Can't wait to see more!

Thank you, hopeful you like it too.

Here the rear wheel. It will have steel wheels, and you can see also the Wagon body... :)

The wheels was not deep enough, so I cut the deep part from the stock wheels. and also the rims from the steele...

That's going to be pretty cool. Reminds me of the one i molded on a split window Vette roof to.

Thank you Ray. Split window Cobra sounds great. My idea is ti do a wagon europena style, like a Volvo p1800.

Ahhhh, it's going to be a " Grocery Getter".

Yes! Thanks Bruce! :D

Great start. Great concept. Don't think I have seen the idea any where else.

Thank you Bob! Me either, except Corvette wagon.

This is awesome.

Thank you Jonathan! :)

Likin' this!!!!!

Thank you Kerry! :)

Used to be someone who had some resin Cobra wagons for sale on ebay but they looked rather crude and I never bought one.

I got burn one time buying a car on ebay from a guy that was casting models. In the picture it looks good. when I got it, was pretty much trash. I contact the guy and he sent me another body worse than the first! I gave up then... If is not a known casting maker I try to avoid to buy.
