Shelby Cobra

[tiptoe]

My buddies asked me to build this one.   From time to time I like to build a fantasy car as if it was "mine".  So my colors, my number, etc.  I did this one like it was a vintage racecar being raced today.

Monogram kit,  I added Slicks from a Revell NASCAR kit, distributor from parks, craft ribbon seat belt and race harness.  Replaced the drivers seat with a modern race seat and ditched the wood steering wheel for a NASCAR wheel.  Remember when I was asking for a helmet?? Well here is what I was gonna use it for.  

Tamiya paint, first time using pearl clear and I love how it looks.  A mix of decals from the decal box, but most of them are gofer racing.

Nice!
I like this concept. A modern interpretation but still a classic.

Thanks,

That really looks good. You did an excellent job on this Cobra. I also like building Teams like I was the Driver/owner.
