Re: 1/8 Scale Scratchbuilt 427 AC Cobra

Thanks guys... Ton, you know me better than to ask if it will be curbside Of course it will be full detail, working suspension, steering, etc. Everything will have to be made, since there is nothing in 1/8th scale to support this build. I am planning on a fiberglass body, since I didn't want to spend the time to make a wooden buck to hammer a tin or copper body out on. That would be a project in itself! But I may do a 289 FIA version after this one and try a metal body on that. I still want to do a 1/8th GT40 and a McLaren MK8 and maybe a Grand Sport Vette down the road, so I hope this project goes as smoothly as I have planned it to... only time will tell!
