Allen Grant's yellow cobra

[migge]

Hi there,

all old posts to this theme are gone. Can't find them.

Please help: I still need the decal on the rear fender of the yellow Allen Grant car that George Lucas was responsible (paint) for. You can find it in Dave Friedmans book. Yellow with black stripes and a few decals. I found out some details except one: the decal on the rear fender. It looks like an animal or something with an wide open mouth. I even contacted Marsh die cast models because they do a lovely 1:43 model. They just guest what it could be and made some black and red decal by their own not knowing what it was. At 1:43 the decal is just 2mm and you can't see anything if you zoom, it's just fanatsy.
Maybe it was just made for this car exclusive and was not a decal for oil, parts or anything like that. Any ideas?

Cheers

The item in question was an animated Cobra snake that was coiled, with its head raised with overly large animated eyes looking forward.
Hope this helps.

Hi Rick,

Thanks for the information. Now we have a least the animal, a snake what else. Do you habe a chance by sending an illustration or do you know someone who has one?

Thanks in advance.
