Very nice Jerry...and I love red Cobras! You should add a Shelby signature to the glove compartment ;) Nice [and correct] texture on the dash. I love your attention to detail. Keep it coming!

Yes Piero, it's a very old Make Up kit.
It's surprising, but the kit does not have, decals.
All are little photoetched pieces for painting ...

I insist. This is question of patience and practice.
A few years ago, I was not able to make them.
I just watched the amazing models of OMF, Brauer, Tim Dyke or Barnett, to try to learn anything from them....

Thanks Peter. I think I will be quite complicated the Shelby's signature ....
Please inform me of it, and I'll try it for next time.
By the way, congratulations for the long roof GTOs 64. They are gorgeous!.

Thanks on the GTO's...I have a Piper that will list today with Bosica wheels. Mike Craig is doing a great job on these kits. Can't wait for the GTO R kits.


I was joking on the signature ;) it would be pretty difficult I think...I am sure someone could do it.

Wow! That is impressive, Jerry. I would be proud to have that sitting on my desk :o)

I would have a big dilemma, though... display with the body on or off?

OMG!
Are you faster with Cobras or GTOs? ;-)

Wow!!! Nice work!!!! I also like the Italian flair with the red paint and wire wheels. I think a bunch of weber's on top of that motor would have looked cool:)

think small

Thanks Peter
Yes, the windshield, appears too square and a little big...
However, it is the most difficult to do in this kit
because is necessary to solder the four frame pieces
leaving an inner channel ,and then introduce the windscreen acetate from bottom to top.
