kjohan Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Looks menacing (as it should ?) Mitchy: have you lowered the stance ? (If so how ?) Built one 1/2 year ago, did not sit quite as low as yours seem to do 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vamach1 Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Very nice and mean looking. The fenders give me an idea. I may cut up a Cobra body and use them on a T/A Mustang I want to build that has very wide fenders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built one 1/2 year ago, did not sit quite as low as yours seem to do I think it is as it came out of the box, but also I set the suspension with the wheels-side-up. It is standing on a soft surface too, so it sinks a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venom Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 (edited) Very cool looking Cobra, and nice work... love the color and extra details you put into it! ... 🤠👍 And I agree with kjohan about the lowered stance ... Both of the Revell Cobras I’ve built so far came out a touch higher at the rear fenders and a bit higher yet at the fronts than yours looks, and both of mine sit with the exact same stance. ***Wait, aha!... After just looking back at your pics it appears that you have a taller profile tire than the kit comes with, which would make the stance appear lower. Are they a different tire? Also, if you have any engine shots would love to see those too Edited January 27, 2022 by Venom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papajohn97 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Would also love to know what tires and wheels you used on this build, (resin after-market?), they make a world of difference on the realism of this very nice Revell Cobra. Your photography is fantastic as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
