JC Reckner's 1963 260 Cobra Chassis #CSX2026
(click the image to go back)
JC added a period-correct Raydot rear view mirror from
Sakatsu and a clear resin racing wind screen from Historic
Racing Miniatures. On the dash gauges are surrounded by
photoetch trim rings and detailed with decal faces, except
for the speedometer which has been blanked out -- the
race cars didn’t use speedometers. While the passenger
seat is the stock unit that came in the AMT kit, JC reworked
the driver's seat from a Monogram GT 350R Mustang kit
to fit. Lever-type seat belt harnesses are Detail Master
products and the fire extinguisher is from JC's parts
box. You can also see where he reshaped the top edge of
driver’s side door to replicate a modification that was
done to increase elbow room as the Cobras often got sideways.
