Default Clear, Flow Coat and Stripes finished at last

Paid a visit to the painters today and I was wrapped to be informed that next Monday, I should arrange for the tilt tray to attend and remove my car from the paint-shop. The duco has has two coats of clear then two flow coats and to say that I'm wrapped would be an understatement.

Wow, looks fantastic Baz!

The colour really suits a Cobra, more so than the car that was your inspiration.

Great vision mate.

Here's looking forward to seeing it finished and on the road sometime soon.

Cheers.

Steve.

Baz looks fantastic.

I was thinking of black for mine and was waivering towards the GM Voodoo Blue with white stripes.

I was worried about a "modern" colour on the Cobra, but after seeing yours I am sold.

I havent followed the pure replica theme in mine and was looking to do something modern on the colour front.

Looks great. You must be excited about getting it back to put all of the bits back on and show her off.

Thanks Gregg,

Youv'e got no idea how wrapped I am. I can't stop looking at my pics. After waiting 45 years, the time has almost arrived.

And a big thanks to all you other 'Cobra Lovers' for your kind words. The car is coming together far better than I thought it would.

Baz.

Les,

It can't come quick enough.

At the moment I'm looking for a large breasted, good looking bikini girl to spread herself over the bonnet for the 'Official Launch' photos. Any recommendations?

Baz, I wouldn't suggest that would be a good thing, your paint will still be a bit soft and she'll wrinkle it.

On second thoughts, after the launch send her to me please, I've got some wrinkles I want removed.

Big boobs and good at ironing. That'll be a difficult woman to find.
