Golly, I thought the fact that I liked the street versions made me somewhat more of a purist. Another delusion vanquished.

Dan,

Relax, you are still delusional, just not in regards to the Cobra

It makes you more of a connoisseur, then a purist! Love you car, that's the way I would do a big block! Cheers, Dennis

It’s 30+ years old DuPont Sunfire Yellow lacquer for 66. It’s pretty much spot on in color but takes on some hue shift in different intensity of light. That was the only picture I had of the ERA on my iPad. I need to take some more pictures of it.

Thanks

Yes, Dan, a lot of those older colors had hue shifts in different lighting! Made it very hard to find the color for my car! Yours looks a lot like Ford Sunlight yellow... great color!

Street Cobra's have a very elegant style to them. Love the look. Nice 66 too. Had a red on red BB coupe.
