Nice Craig. So far we have photos of one car appearing to be lavender and another with seemingly pink seats ... Warren, I hope your seat colour will be an unambiguous one.

Either that, or we need to up the resolution that can be obtained for photos on the Forum Gallery. On that point, I notice that many of our US members have nothing in their galleries and use instead Flickr or Photobucket, etc. Are these better options anyway?

Byroncobra, I'm not sure if you've been using Wassa's camera but after carefully matching the colour of your seats to a comprehensive colour chart I have we end up with perfect match called "flamingo pink". %/

Regards.

ByronC,
Can you tell me a story about your wheels, unless you have a link to a previous post.
Who custom machined the centres and what size are they ?

p.s. my chassis is painted in the very same Lambo Titainum
Cheers,
Dave

I believe that they are Dragway, Dave (Billet Wheels ) as are mine. Greg will confirm the size but probably 17".

As Merv says they are Dragways, Model DB51. They are in fact 16" x 8" on the front and 16" x 9.5" rear.

Be careful with offsets as mine were ordered incorrectly (by the guy that I bought the part built car from) and the Advan tyres in the pic scrub on the rear guards. A lower profile tyre with narrower width has fixed this, however adhesion has suffered.......this also may have something to do with the xtra HP new heads have delivered :-)

I spent a great deal of time getting the offset/backspace measurements exactly right. It is one of the most important things to do on a Cobra, as they are all different. Dragway are more expensive than some imports, but they have a fantastic and sturdy product and they engage with you very carefully about the set up of the wheels. See their offset chart on the URL above. Cheaper wheels are no good if they don't fit in properly.
