Sometime when you're bored....
(The odd reflections in this hood are the ceiling of the paint booth)
Try....
Taking, one Shelby Cobra kit car....
Add countless hours of body work to an incredibly crappy fiberglass body....
Add three coats of Orion Silver metalflake, four coats of Kandyapple Red tinted clear intermediate coat and three coats of clear urethane....
Wet sand, lay out stripes, mask, paint three more coats of Orion Silver metalflake for the stripes and four more coats of clear over the entire project....
Over thirty two hours on a weekend; and you have a Kandyapple Red Cobra.
I did all the bodywork and paint. The kit car belongs to a friend.
All the paint materials from House of Kolors.
The suspension and differential is from a Mustang 5.0.
The engine is a race modified 351 CID Ford power plant with a low profile supercharger and special electronics. It will turn a 1/4 mile quicker than 99.99 percent of people have ever driven.
I'll try to get some more pictures up when the car is reassembled and done.

My time seems to be consumed with work and I seldom post although I do monitor the blog and always read my Email.
