Shelby Cobra wagon

[cobraman]

Resin body and interior . Had several issues building this thing . Some were of my own making I’m sure . Even though the body and interior were taken from the AMT kit there were still fit issues . I messed up the windows that I cut from sheet plastic . Painted with Tamiya Pearl Green . I used Duplicolor clear but I was out of the 1k I prefer to use but was out . Painted the roof black to break it up . Not my best work or maybe it is but I don’t want to believe that . Better luck with my next kit . I think I will pass on resin kits and or bodies going forward . Still it looks pretty good in the cabinet . Thanks for looking .

Very nice little wagon! Love the concept!

Cool looking body. Body/wheel colour combos work well together. Was the resin difficult to work with due to its more brittle nature?

[TooOld]

Looks pretty nice to me , that's actually one of the better resin wagon conversions I've seen for the Cobra !  The black breaks it up and makes a big difference  , well done Ray !  Resin bodies are always hit or miss even from the same company , you never know what you'll get .

Interesting conversion, Ray - that's what our British friends would call "Shooting Brake" (cross-over cars combining sportscar and Station wagon like David Brown's personal DB5 or the Jaguar E from the movie "Harold and Maude")

I like the concept.

This reminds me of the old Corvette "wagon" conversions in the 70s.

Thank you all very much !  Harry, it wasn't the resin being brittle that was a problem but rather I found the body too thick in areas for the interior to fit well which then made the chassis not fit well. Dremel work solved the problems.

I like the color.  It is very close to Ford of England Linden Green which Ford Advanced Vehicles (FAV) used on some of their GT40s.
