The making of a 427 Narrow Hip Cobra starts now!!

Anybody have an idea where I can find the correct Trico washer reservoir,or the Serck brass radiator tag for this build? I built my first ERA almost 30 years ago,and have been itching ever since to build a street roadster that was all about the detail.

You might check with Mickmate on the Trico bottle and radiator tag. I watched EBay in England for awhile for a Trico bottle but never turned up a correct on - some say they have found them there. If you can find one over here it will probably be pricey.

Don't forget the aluminum bead on the inside............

Photo 1 is a good example of what sunburst rims look like on a wide hip cobra


Photos 2,3 and 4 shows today's progress on the quarters

Looking good. It looks like you have trimmed the lower, front wheel flare also.

Here are a couple more photos of narrow hips.
