Sorry I have not been around lately. Been real busy with work and a new job. Here is a few recent pics of the 86. I just got back from NMRA at Atco this past weekend. Nice show with some sweet cars.

That's one very nice looking car. I like the hood too ;) . The Mach1s look much better than the 4-lug Cobras did on it.

I really like the engine compartment and the wheels.


The wheels seem to compliment the sail panels well. Are the sail panels grey? Nice look with the orange.

Perhaps you can get them polished or find some later style Cobras for it.

I've been planning on putting a set of Mach1's on mine for years. Mainly, it's been put off due to my "need for speed"...;)

Very nice look & very nice work there bud....

I think the OLD Magnum 500's would be better :)

FYI.... The old Magnum's are now being reproduced by Wheel Vintique's in 15" through 17" rim sizes. Just like the origionals; chrome plated steel....

The notch needs to be lowered there's too much space between the fender lip and tire ;).
BTW the 86 looks great.

Although still very nice, I think it's the ride height and the itty-bitty brakes that are making that notch look not-quite-right.
