Good deal. I'm rather nervous to wetsand mine, but its going to need it. The Claybar helped but tree sap is murder. Time to do some searching on this procedure. Good luck with your endeavor!
From the way it looks I would say you got a good fine small issues that are about the same for every cobra and freshen up that paint and enjoy!
Yes, lots of small stuff, to swap,detail. All plastic, window trim is faded or dry rotted. RH 1/4 window is nice, LH not so much. Cowl cover is good, needs RH foglight, glass is gone, I have one ordered already.
Willy, do you know which is correct antenna mast? I got an extra one with the wire wrapped in it and one on car is without.
Also I believe the car's were painted the semi gloss around door window frames, can you confirm this? Thanks
Smooth antennae.
Talk to Aaron Stiles over on the Cobra Registry. He's redone a bunch of these cars, so I'm sure he knows what the right paint to use is at this point.
I use the SEM trim black on the mirrors, cowl, and other trim pieces.
It is a sort of semi-gloss stuff, but I don't dare to guess what's out there to match it to produce the OEM look.
does this car have rust on the trunk? did you buy it from penn valley or something like that?
I almost bought that car before I bought a red one in socal. The rust was my issue. But I'm not a paint and body man so I didnt want to deal with it, I really liked the car though. I believe it was an older lady that was selling because her husband died or something along those lines. Good to see someone is cleaning it up, and again I really liked that car and I think you got it for a pretty good price, I remember her asking $7500 or something real close.
