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

you remember correctly
last 5 years, i've worked on some motoryacht projects.
i made wooden-buck at my friend's workshop.
i'm following your coupe built, good luck

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

For the non metric guys here...

from 645 to 1506 square feet

Ozgur, just take the opportunity at the move and trash what you don't need - you will be surprised what you dig out...
