289 Cobra

[Hard_2_Handle_454]

I have a 427 version, but I also wanted the 289 version with the grill and bumpers.  It's not a bad kit, but I don't like it in 1/25 scale.  It's pretty tiny.

Nicely done. It is small thats for sure. Some fitment issues and the hollow tires just don’t fit inside the wheel wells. You did a nice job on it though. I like that color too.

Thanks for pointing that out.  I did forget to mention that.  The tire do not fit in the wheel wells good at all.  It took a lot of work to get them to not stick out in a cartoonish manner.

I should have been clearer with my initial response. The “kit” has some quirks in it and that includes those tires. You did a really nice job on the kit though. ?

Very pretty. I like the color a lot. It looks really good on this car.
