produced. I read that Shelby painted that car multiple times in different colors to make the press think he had more Cobras than he did when he was first starting out. No other Cobras were painted Pearl yellow to my knowledge.

Rather than spending up to $600 for used Exoto version of that car I chose to make a 427 in that color using a $50 Solido.

Here's a photo of Shelby's magazine car along with a sample of the paint I used for this project.
