TooOld Posted August 4, 2016 Posted August 4, 2016 Cool ! That's a nice one Ray , like those headers !
cobraman Posted August 4, 2016 Author Posted August 4, 2016 Thanks Bob ! Seems text went bye bye for some reason. Model was built pretty much right out of box except for a couple of mods. I chopped the top about 1/4 of an inch. I cut the pickup bed about in half and made a cover from sheet plastic. I added a radiator hose and painted it with Flaming Orange with some decals from the parts box.
Ramfins59 Posted August 5, 2016 Posted August 5, 2016 You made a pretty cool looking Rod... Nice job Ray.
wayne swayze Posted August 5, 2016 Posted August 5, 2016 Nice looking rod! I like the short box. Very clean Ray!
Spex84 Posted August 5, 2016 Posted August 5, 2016 Lookin' good! Nice and clean, with some appropriate parts added.I like the Blue Streaks and cragars, and it's nice to have a change from the standard '25 T body. Looks like it rolled right of...maybe 1968? Very cool.
bobthehobbyguy Posted August 6, 2016 Posted August 6, 2016 Nice work. The modifications really look good.
Harry P. Posted August 6, 2016 Posted August 6, 2016 That looks cool, but I don't get the raised moldings on the body sides.They obviously aren't meant to be doors, so I'm wondering why they're there and what they're supposed to be?
1930fordpickup Posted August 6, 2016 Posted August 6, 2016 Nice work Ray. It may not be a Cobra but it sure is cool.
cobraman Posted August 6, 2016 Author Posted August 6, 2016 Thanks everyone. Harry, not sure about those panel lines. Perhaps to add strength to the body ?????
Jon Cole Posted August 7, 2016 Posted August 7, 2016 Body sides are a large mass, so enforcement ribbing was added around the perimeter of areas such as edge of window openings, and doorways. Or I suppose they just felt it made it look better.
crazyjim Posted August 7, 2016 Posted August 7, 2016 Very nice work Ray. The engine and headers look like those from the very old Model T kit that had a chopped coupe in it.
