Default 427 Body Shape
Does anyone know how many hours &/or how much development went into the shape of the 427 Cobra body?
Obviously there were different versions, fender flares, trim etc. My question is based on looking at many replicas who slightly miss "the shape" which seemingly takes a lot away from it's distinct "Mean & Nasty" look.
Did the developers use a 289 body buck & modify it or did they start from scratch? Who were the main people on the project?
