Phil - Nice green.

Is it my eyesight, or have you added half door 'outlines' on the sides?

Cheers, Paul.

Love the green
Love the black wires
Love the green headlight surrounds
Love the outlines

What's not to love

I spotted that too Paul ...was going to ask the same ...Agreed on headlight rings too ...I often paint mine , I think it gives them a different , earlier feel ..takes it away from the Cobra-ness if you like ..

I'm good thanks Phil ...Currently doing a Tribute 250SWB for a customer with a few changes , I'm no expert on those cars but I think we are leaning towards the earlier version , boot mounted fuel cap , 3 slots in the vents rather than 2 ..that sort of thing ...

Also doing some work on a D type for another guy on a heavily modded SE5 chassis , shortened and centre reconstructed to allow a 4.2 to go in ..

I am collecting parts to put a couple of Sammio's together as well .....

Looking at your pics again ...you have really nailed it with that car , mate ...Is that the MG green we painted a few with early on ?

thanks guys just trying the door lines as it breaks it up a bit ...colour is mg 1964 racing green as were i get my paint they lost the paint card for the jag racing green i had ....but i think it looks good ....got the head light rings from lancelot early cars .....lancelot get a car done and pop up to norfolk......

Really liking the lighter green. Brilliant!

lancelot link · #**495** 9th July 2016, 20:06

THE DOOR LINE IS A NICE TOUCH PHIL ..IT DOES BREAK UP THE PLAIN SIDES A BIT ...I might have to nick that idea !!

I'm hoping to put a revised version of the Spyder together this year for myself ...work a few ideas in that have been festering away in my head for a while ... If I build it and more importantly keep it long enough ..a trip may be on the cards !!
