Default Cobra badge

Just another silly question.

How far up from the nose or down from the bonnet does the small round (about 40mm diameter) badge with the Cobra on it sit?

"Badges on Bonnet and Boot" - Found on Snakebite.com

Originally these badges were positioned 18.5” back from the front edge of boot lid and centered on the boot.
Originally these badges were positioned 11.5” further forward of the front edge of the bonnet and centered on the body.
Both measurements taken to centre of badge.

Do a search here for "badge placement" and you can take your pick

Trust me Mike, I will need a badge for the Nationals.

Working on a little side project, only to be revealed at the Nationals.
And I can thank you for the idea.

Trust me Bernie, Mike is more finished than me, at least his is registered.

It would be great to see you at the Nationals Bernie, hope you do get there.

Bernie, you should know they are never finished. I wouldn't know what to do with myself if it was finished.

My favourite episode to date is in series 2 "The Priest and the Beast"

I liken the Boosh to "The Young Ones" for the new Milenium. It's that same off beat, don't know where it's going to go style of comedy.

Cheers

That's not Boosh it's TISM, you're on the drugs!! You and that ol man River!

Oh and "you in there Zomb!!" is another great line from your Bob Hope best one liner film. I can't remember the film title but one of the best laughs I've had from an oldie in years.

Now get back to that car!

The boss wants to know if you know the name of the Bob Hope movie Mike?

She is keen to get her hands on some form of copy of it!

Cheers

Steve

Oh and get back to that car!!

Yes trying to make the Nationals.

I cancelled out on the 'Run N Gun' today as there is just a little happening here at the moment.

I had the tickets and cancelled the booking today as well...

I had planned to fly into Texas and then driving up to Evansville,Indiana.

Looks like I'll miss Craig and John over at the Run N Gun driving the RCR SLC Coupe..

So no Run N Gun and possibly a day or two at Goulbourn....

Hard boss to work for..
