I saw a carved wooden Cobra about 12 " long at a swap meet. The seller said it was mahoghany but I thought it would be darker, this was a tan color with lots of wood grain showing through the sealed surface. It was a 427 roadster. I don't think they had glass in the windshield. It had side pipes in black. I don't remember the wheels. Anyhow what would someone pay for this? If it's enough I'll go back to the event and see if he's still there next month. He had lots of other cars but I thought the 427 Cobra was about 75% accurate compared to most diecast metal ones. The beauty was in the wood, not in the faithfullness of capturing the shape.
