yep, very a/c cobraish. we made a splash mold of an actual a/c cobra ...front 30 inches at least. then remade the velarosa rear clip to suit our needs so that the 315/35/17 tires would tuck under the rear. wait till you see the year long project pics. it has been a long hard road , but worth every minute.

many already know that this was my sons car. he passed away 8 years ago. time for me to step up i guess

I think we all know

that the Cobra/ Ferrari Daytona and the 240/260/280 have similar lines and style queues. With that color combo and obvious attention to detail I am positive that it will turn out looking really good, can't wait to see the finished project.

Nice

I am sure we will see this car in a Magazine once you get it all together, judging by the quality of the paint job, perhaps theDuPont Registry.
