Terlingua Cobra . . .

[Eddie Cremer]

I figured as long as I built these things I might as well post some pictures of them.  This was a 1:18th ERTL diecast kit of a 427 Cobra.  I wanted to build a replica of a picture I found on the Internet of a Terlingua Cobra, and this was the result.  I didn't discover until I was almost done with it that the prototype was actually a small block car.

It came already painted yellow so paint-wise on the body all I added was the red stripe.  The decals were printed out at home.  The front and rear jack points were scratch-built, as were the belts and harnesses.  I dropped it a little in the front.  I included a group shot of the other Cobras, but one is missing because I hadn't done anything with it yet.  Ironically I had three ERTL's and 3 Yat Mings.

Looks good. I hope your yellow body doesn't crack up like one of mine did.
