Default regardig the cobra

just a little info on the cobra you are talking about
i have worked on that cobra and driven it
it is a genuine car it use to be kevin donnellans car(remeber the jingle kevin donnellan bla bla just rambling on) it was totally refurbished while in his possesion and later sold to geoff burrows (i think somewhee around 250k)thats where i come in to it,i worked at a little paint and panel shop(howson automotive) 2 doors up from where geoff burrows worked ,we would often work on their personal cars or one used in his productions(movies) the cobra was bought to us and asked if we could make it look like a ****ter we used a clear flattening agent that was sprayed over the whole car chrome and all and was able to be removed with prepsol as this was done a couple of times for retakes the gt belonged to a young fella who worked at repco sth melb he sold it to geoff, it is a genuine gt but not an ho it caught fire under the bonnet and the original shaker was destroyed along with the wiring,we pulled the engine and repainted it did the wirng lock stock and barrell the shaker was replaced with one of a genuine boss 302 mustang(my car at the time)geoff also had us respray and restore hi ferrari daytona ( use to belong to ben lexen winged keel americas cup fame ,any way)
thats the deal on those car ,i hope this clears a few thing up .......one more thing the car to drive was a typical yank car went like **** of a shovell and handled average
cheers glen
