My last two stock car builds ..........

[oldcoyote]

Terry Labonte's 2004 "Platinum" Kelloggs Monte Carlo ........ which was a paint test to see if Cobracolors Lacquers could be used on a stock car)




.... and a total Phantom notchback Chevy Monte Carlo ......... carrying modified David Pearson Rogers Esso decals

Nice builds. I like the paint on the Labonte car and the old skool build just plain rocks.

Wow I love the Labonte car. That paint looks awesome, I guess the cobra colors worked. It's a shame he had to shut down. :(The greyside car is very nicely done as well. Both great builds.

Yes sir, it's really a shame that Leon had to close his business ........... his paints were outstanding

While I was able to complete the car, I honestly would not recommend Cobracolors on complex paint schemes which require a lot of masking ............ the lacquers have a tendency to want to lift as the masking is removed and that can cause some pretty extensive touch-up ............ this one had only minor touch up around the left side driver's window ............. and touch-up with automotive lacquers can be tricky .............. not to say it can't be done, but it's not something that the rattle can or hobby enamel crowd would be comfortable with

However, I'm still one of the biggest fans of Cobracolors ........... they were marvelous paints
