hi to all,
i'm pretty happy with the final shape of new fender flares on #4.
at last i've got new outer skin of the hood from new mould.
working on riveted-on type hood scoop and will start working on new inner skin of the hood.
peace,
ozgur

One of the two "classic" Cobra colors (the other being Guardsman Blue)!!
Just yesterday I took my Rangoon Red replica to the local A.J. Foyt automotive paint shop to get some touchup paint to deal with a few rock chips. Wouldn't you know it, their "spectograph" was broken (not to mention that the lady said it was wrong 90% of the time), so I took a chance on just giving her the paint name (at one time I had a shop ticket with the paint code on it, but haven't seen it since a fishing buddy allowed his ice-chest to leak all over my Cobra info).
The match was perfect....her color catalog listed a Rangoon Red for something like 1962 to 1971 for both Fords and Mercurys.
I really like the idea of making the primer the same color as the paint...have used the technique for some window trim on my old family home in SW KS. If I ever build a replica from scratch, that's the way I'll do it, too!
Cheers!
Dugly

Yep, with a uniform paint the looks changed. The doors and the hood lining up very nicely. I like the finish of the fender flairs too!

Ozgur So you made new mold from red car and new body from new mold? I thought you modified the mold from the red car then built new body. Do you play with fiberglass in your everyday life (job) or is it just a hobby to support cobra addiction? Mark

Ozgur At one time I read all of your thread . Just didnt remember everything. so after my last post I started to go back over your thread for a refresher. I see one picture that looks like there is a large mold in the bakground. Looks like it might be for a large boat . So I assume that fiberglass and mold making was part of your job or business before your cobra hobby Mark

G'day to all,
Here it's some update. I've used aerocatch for hood and boot on #4 instead of traditional shiny bits.
I'm start to work on hardtop.
Regards,
Ozgur
