AC Cobra 427SC by SMTS
Hand built available CL097M
As SMTS say in the introduction on their instructions, the 427-engined version of the Cobra wasn’t successful when compared with its smaller engined siblings, but its fearsome reputation for huge power and scary handling made it an instant classic and one which has been much mimicked. The kit parts are very cleanly cast with minimal flash to remove on our sample and assembly looks to be straightforward, which is just as well as the instructions consist of a parts list and very simple written directions on preparing the castings for paint. The choice of left or right hand drive is included and there are plated parts for the windscreen frame, rollbar, exhausts and various lights and handles. Our hand built sample is smartly finished in Guardsman Blue with dual white stripes neatly painted on the centreline and lacquered in (there are no decals in the kit). The windscreen frame looks a little heavy and may have been better as an etched part, but otherwise the model looks very smart and the coloured sun visors on top of the screen are a nice touch.
