    Hey Shadow, did you decide on a cobra kit yet? I've been building an AC (for about 14 yrs ) and it seems like a good basis. the frame welds are great, the body is a one piece with thick enough glass and is going together ok. I'm sure some kits might be easier or more popular but I'm happy with this build.

    I was kinda hoping he would just drive it into the water at the end. Holy cow, I've seen a lot of stupid things in my life, but I think that took the cake.

    You're right. Rollovers are in fact rare (on the street, not so much on the track) but the chances of getting injured from your head hitting the roll bar are much higher than getting smushed in a...

    As for value, these Cobras are not real Cobras. They are replicas and they are only worth what someone is willing to pay. They are no more valuable than a pretty rat rod. I own a ERA 427, but I have...

    MM is correct. But the sad truth about Cobra roll bars is that far more serious injuries are caused by BFT to the head resulting from relatively minor impacts than from flipping the car and...

    the shadow liked post by RUFdriver On thread : Please Help Value Car
    90% of the roll bars in Cobras are cosmetic, the hoops won’t do crap in a real crash. If you’re seriously tracking these cars you need a full on cage. Any bolt in roll bar is cosmetic IMO. I had a...

    Superformance uses adapters to get to the "knock-off" system. Offsets the wheel out about 5/16 or maybe 3/8". You can find the parts at Vintage Wheel. There were 2 maybe 3 versions of the...
