Post Something to ponder....

An extract I found in Trevor Legate's new book ("Cobra - the first 40 years" - P.227).

"One important detail that many replica Cobra builders consistently get wrong is the transverse curve of the bonnet. ....... if the finished panels are not correctly supported, they drop, which is why some examples have relatively flat front sections that cannot accept an original windscreen."
