cobraman Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 This was just a quick build . I took the engine out of the kit for a different project so this one has the hood glued down and no engine installed . Added a resin scoop . Paint is Blazing Black with a gold stripe . Looks best at a distance !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vamach1 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Looks good from here Ray. Have you ever tries to put in the Monogram or AMT 289 engines in one of these kits or even a 5.0? The Factory Five “427” kit Cobra I owed had a 302. Most of the kit cars you see on the road do not have a Ford big block. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted March 25, 2021 Author Share Posted March 25, 2021 Now that you mention it i do Have a 289 here I was saving for a AMT Cobra. Not sure what scale that engine is. I think I remember that you said you never use that skinny 260/289 engine that comes in the AMT kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 67/68 AMT Mustangs have a much better 289/302 engine as does the Monogram 65-66 Mustangs and may fit the Monogram Cobra okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
