I am a brand new member and this is my first effort at 'Posting a Thread.'
I need your help.
In 1962 I was 18. That was when I saw a picture of my first Cobra and I fell madly in love with it. I have always wanted one. The closest I could get were pictures around my home and toy replica's on my bar.
I am now 63 and finally in a position to fulfil my dream. Today I ordered the body/chassis unit from R.M.C. in Western Australia and the engine/gearbox from Holden in Victoria. The motor will be a 307 kw LS2 Gen 4, 6 litre thumper connected to a 6 speed Triptronic Auto. The wheels will be 17 x 8 front and 17 x 11 rear, mounted on Vintage knock offs.
I have waited a 45 years for this time in my life and I'm like a kid in a lolly shop.
I have one problem. The selected body colour is a particular shade of red with gold stripes and I can't identify the clour/paint batch number etc..
I haven't quite mastered this site yet so I am inserting my email address. If any one out there thinks they can possibly help me, contact me on
barryandmartha@iprimus.com.au and I will reply with a photo of an identical coloured Cobra which I want identified for colour.
I eagerly wait your replies.
