While the T-10 is being made I needed to get some of the jewelry to make it all work.
These are getting harder to find.

Well let's Getter Done...
I have to say that that body configuration (i.e. flairs) is like my fathers 289 back in the day. Any thought of doing a "Barn Find" paint job?

is that an aluminium body?
will you leave the chassis unpainted?
the front fenders are too wide compared to the rear fenders (m2c)
and finally... offroad tires ?
p.s. the golden one looks really nice with the windshield

Will be calling MK, few parts missing.
Never thought about barn find paint job. Might be something to consider.
Flares are really not as bad as picture. It's a glass SAI prototype body so I will not be modifying, in person its pretty cool.
Planning alloy hood, inner panels, doors and boot.

in my opinion the front flares should be smaller than the rear flares, and in general a 289 should have smaller flares than a 427,
but for sure its all about personal view and personal taste  , cause really every (race-) cobra has other flares
i cutted my flares about 1,5" smaller recently, still wide enough....

That does look better, maybe I will consider that move....
The tighter look is definitely more British and cool.
Might then add alloy rib to the inner fender for the effect of alloy on main body.
Did you do that?

with further reflecting to the design of your flares, i think that design should have been the ac ace's body development in the first place, to me it is more harmonic and obvious than the slabside idea,
really cool that the flares are ending to zero

Not a key bob but smooth.
