Thanks Andrew (I hope I've got your name right from other posts) for the information. Very valuable tips.

Are you going to paint it yourself or have you arranged with a painter?

There are a couple of the VIC club members who I am told do good paint work. I am going to have a chat to them to see what they normally recommend. My understanding is that the paint job finished product is largely dependant on the prep work.

I am thinking of waiting til my VIN # comes through and then driving my Cobra to them for a good chat about what they think etc.

Also, the eternal big problem - what colour and stripes.

I have my heart set on black with white stripes but the other members of my family are trying to talk me in to black with silver stripes.

I am planning on trying to see some examples "in the flesh" to get a good feel for how the finished product will look like.

What colour are you thinking?
