Even a convertible would be nice ! I've always loved this kit !!! 😇👍 They both need the Cobra Jet hood....😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Suburban Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 (edited) I didn't have any issues that I can recall with my hood and shakers fitting on both of my builds. Also, it is rumored to have the Twister Special decals in it! Edited August 26, 2023 by Sport Suburban 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd check Scale Finishes or MCW. One or both will likely have that colour. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard_2_Handle_454 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Finished mine last night. I did have the shaker hood problem. Ended up just gluing the shaker to the hood and I had to remove the carb to make the hood shut. Had a little trouble getting the front and rear end on as well. Didn't remember that issue with my last one. Hope to post the pics soon. It's mine and my dad's birthday weekend, so I've been busy. I really like how the ones others have doe came out. I wish mine looked that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C. Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Can't decide if I want to build one of these as I already have a few of them already wired and detailed in 1/18 diecast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is only one body for both kits. The previous issue of the Cobra used the GT body, the instructions mentioned having to remove the trim. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merkur XR4Ti Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Yes, I'm working on mine now and it took less than 5 minutes to sand off the GT louvers on both sides of the body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? Twisters were only in Calypso Coral, so the color wouldn't match either. I assume he used the side stripes because he wanted to and they looked cool, which is all the reason anyone needs.
