Mando, don't do it black, the dust will drive you crazy. I am a fan of the orange with black stripes, something different, or the blue and white. This GT40 is in blue and white looks amazing in the light and is different, it's a motorcycle colour. I always thought yours would be silver with grey/silver stripes for some reason.

Steve, I really like the Blue/White combination on the GT40. Ive seen it on a couple of Cobras and love it. If I decided to go "unusual", I guess I would pick the orange/black combination.

I've got a hand painted Cobra poster in a very similar light blue. Holden have a similar 'turismo blue' that I think came out with the VY. It's non-metallic too.

Yea, Sambo my VZ ute is in the Turismo colour, it's really different, I didn't like the turismo in the sedans but I liked the colour in the ute, it would be interesting on a cobra. I don't really think that there is a bad colour on a cobra the lines and shape just seem to look good no matter what however I don't like metallic colours on Cobras but thats just my opinion, to each their own.

Bunnings green is the 'new' racing green in my book.
Go blue Mando!! |
Non metallic greens such as BRG and Sherwood Green can really look good. I restored a 1960 MGA in BRG.

Turismo is the colour I am painting my Cobra, only I have included heaps of 'Pearl' in with the paint. The car goes for painting in under a fortnight and the process including a couple of coats of 'Clear' then 'Flow Coating' will take about 5 weeks. I have chosen silver/grey stripes for the body in the identical design and pattern to those shown in the photo below. Regards Baz http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...s_2_Small_.jpg |
