John,
I loved the look of your Cobra, but this just doesn't blow up my skirt. The finished car looked okay, but the hardtop is just not working at all. It just doesn't seem to flow the same way the body lines do, so it just isn't a good complement to the rest of the body.

For a body with such outrageous lines, you need a top with equally outrageous but complementary lines- otherwise it just takes away from the car and makes it look cartoonish and/or kit-carish.

I think some flares on the fenders would add a lot to the look of the car.

Bob
