[A Snake]

rsimoes,

Look at a picture of an original Cobra. Every weld shows the grinding marks.

Get one from Kirkham and if you want it shiny, take it to a chrome shop and have them buff and polish it for you. It will cost about $100, but when done, you won't see any marks.

I think you can see mine in the engine picture in my gallery. (titled "plain but potent") I had it polished.

If you do have it polished, don't bother with the bottom or the part where the carb sits. Nobody can see that anyway. Just do the "walls". It'll look great.
