I got it in December and have put a whole 1500k's on it so far and loved every one.

I plan to make a few changes down the track, like a new colour scheme, interior roll bar just to name a few, when it comes to do that time I may have some questions for you all.

Hi Theo. In case heaps of people miss your first post buried on page 8 of another thread, like Boxhead said - welcome to ClubCobra!

Got any other pics or details about your car?

Theo 01-05-2012 05:14 AM

Thanks' for the welcome guys.
I will have to upload a few more pics soon.
The car is an 88 build Dax with a pretty stock 302 (I may have to change that a bit latter) 5 speed gearbox with Jag suspension front and rear. My first project will be to tidy up the body, a good cut and polish should bring back a nice shine while I save a bit of coin for some new paint.

Welcome to the madness Theo. this is a great forum with great people who will give you great advice, as well as occasionally taking the piss ! All in good fun though.
Enjoy the journey ;)

Also Theo, welcome. I am sure that you will find the Forum a great resource throughout your modifications and for connecting with club events.

Theo 01-05-2012 09:33 PM

Thanks' for the welcome both Rog and Merv. I have no doubt that I will be picking your brains as time goes on.
Merv I love your car, what colour is it?

Merv and Sharon 01-05-2012 10:53 PM

Thank you Theo. There are several colours that are similar. It is VW Platinum Grey Metallic, but I am told that BMW Dark Silver is the same.

BMW Dark Silver Metallic - Express Paint

Looks like I might have to take myself off to some local car dealers to check this colour out in the flesh.

Merv and Sharon 01-06-2012 03:40 AM

Theo, if you work your way through this thread, there are some really great Silver and Grey colours on Cobras. In my opinion, not all colours work on Cobras.

It is interesting how the grey ones change in various light and reflective conditions.

Wazza 01-06-2012 06:25 AM

Is that lavender!!??

No....It's Grey...but it does change around a fair bit whether it's inside , in shadow, or in full sun.

Hi Merv, I was wondering if you can actually see the left hand mirror or is it just for looks?
Hi Wazza, how about showing us some detailed pictures of your car? {In Focus}.

Regards.

Merv and Sharon 01-06-2012 12:39 PM

Yes, I get the same Warren, it varies between blue, green and shades of grey. It looks great. Will be on the road soon?

Mando that mirror works perfectly, for the passenger!

Wazza 01-06-2012 02:40 PM

Hi Wazza, how about showing us some detailed pictures of your car? {In Focus}.

Hi Mando,

Yeah your right...It's spent most of the time up the back of a warehouse, with just an overhead bright light...

Then I found if I stood up close to let the flash have some effect, the car looked all out of shape in the wide angle shot.....the "Huge nose" look.

The couple of times I've had it outside, I only ever had my old pissy camera phone....( got a new IPhone 4S for Chrissy, so that's not a prob any more...awesome camera in them )....and with all that white concrete and a dark car...the photos go all weird.

I'll have another go soon.

Cheers,
Warren.
