Realy nice car, I like both the real Cobra and the LEGO one.
Since the model is 6 wide; where do you get the tires?
Cant remember exactly which one, but i have bought around three of the Drome
racers for the wheels and tires.

But you should have made it in another color, it is hard to see the details
on the LEGO-model when it is made with only black parts.
Its so true! I would like to build a blue one some time in the future. I am
about to upload a similar vehicle which i built in red, you can pich up more
of the construction details there...

Thanks for the niceties,
Robert

I have the same problem myself, have most black parts and I like the black
look on any vehicle but when photographed the details disapears when you
dont have enough lights.

Hi
Another upload at last...
Not sure when this car was originally released, or manufactured in the • model
i have based it on, or any other details like that... i just like the • look
of this car.
I like the 6-wide models with seating for two abreast, and convertables • are
much easier to produce. The design is very similar to Luke's Landspeeder.
This sizing also fit well onto the Lego road plates. Black tends to look
pretty good on these cars in reality, though, as with most models, too
much black just hides detail.
any way, hope you like it as much as i do.
