Ditto Ed, the dark colors really bring out the lines of a Cobra.

Great for the seller! It has the wrong PCV valve and that’s holding the tube/elbow up too high but it’s easily fixed with the right parts.

So not as good as original AC factory handiwork, or just not perfect?

the original handiwork was also different in quality from car to car, a good restauration can correct the lower quality bodies, it should be corrected with a black, dark green or dark blue paintwork…


check this as example:
