A few pics after painting
Here are a few rough pics after painting. Not on the real camera and also before washing! And it rained just as I pushed it out.

Beautiful car, but the steering wheel is on the wrong side..
|
Damn! I knew that something was wrong!
Merv |
Merv,
That looks really great. Bet your happy with the result.:D Phil:) |
Thanks Phil. Yes it will look when polished and in proper light. I wanted a somewhat 'subdued' look (if that is ever possible with a Cobra?) with the dark green seats and black leather dash and carpets. No side pipes and as little bling as possible.
Merv |
Love the badgeing No mention of shelby. He'll probably get upset over that.
|
Sweet ride! Just make sure you keep the Funnel Webs and King Browns out of the passenger seat!
David :):):) |
Looking good Merv. Nice work.
Only a couple more months now before mine is ready. Cheers |
Thanks Geoff, David and Mike. Yours is looking good Geoff - but you have also seen it now. David - no funnel-web spiders up here but we have the browns and a really nasty and more aggressive one - the taipan. Hey, that could be a good Aussie Cobra name!
And Mike, the the "SC" Cobra badging will have to be on the clothes somewhere to keep the brand happy. Many thanks, Merv |
Bluddy hell Merv, you will have to lift your act mate. ;)
The boot latch is not straight in the closed position. :confused: If your gonna present such a nice car you gotta make sure It's presented perfectly. ;) Apart from that it looks excellent. :) |
Beautiful job Merv. I don't think I have seen that color used before but I like it a lot!
Clois |
Thanks Clois. It is a VW (and Mazda) colour Platinum Grey. Has lots of different effects depending on the light. Looks much lighter in full sun.
Merv |
Oh Yeah!, that's a good looking color.
|
Nice job Merv. I knew you would love that color. I get a lot of compliments on mine. It has just the right amount of metallic with a little pearl in it.

Nice paint! oh so nice.

Thanks again guys. I seem to have put up the same pic twice. A couple of others here - one in artificial light. I agree Jim, it was a good choice (and thank you) and when finally clean and polished and in some sun it looks good.
Geez David I am flattered! Crocs, snakes, Great Whites (there is a big one off our west coast now that is trying to tip boats over for more victims), .. and the Cobra? Merv :eek: http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...um/Front18.jpg http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...ar_Paint_1.jpg |
I love the Reg No. too!
|
Love the colour Merv and the understated look. Something tells me you'll still be turning heads though!
Any plans to add rear stays to those hoops? |
No Sambo. I decided to have them black to reduce the amount of chrome and even considered leaving them off entirely.
