Thanks for looking
 
AMAZING JAY!!!!

Wow dude that looks so good, your threads are such a treat, thank you again for posting!!!
 
I was rumaging through the show and shine again and I must have missed this one. I have always had a great love for these AC Cobras. The body style is just fantastic and will never go out of style plus the power in a lightweight body :Car smiley::drool5:. Your attention to detail on this beauty is outstanding. Thanks :clap:
 
Great car, great detail work...

Back in the day I thought I had the fastest production car (Jag E) and then this big dude in a cowboy hat went passed me in a blue AC with a white centre stripe, like I was parked. Met him later at a cafe, his name was Carroll something ;) real interesting guy
 
nice work on a beauty...bet that thing turns some heads rolling down the english countryside. a 427 with side pipes coming by will surely get your attention.... shweeeeeeet!!!!
