Hey there,

I can also highly recommend Chuck's drawings, I am using a set myself for a 289 build. He has done a tremendous amount of work on these, check them out. Sometimes you do get what you pay for.
If you really are not concerned about originality then check out fasterpatricks build

Fasterpatricks Custom Cobra

There are some great ideas there! So just get yourself some 4" tube, set them about 21" apart on the table and get to work.

You build what you like and I will build what I like...it's all good

I like Chucks.....
Way worth the $, if the funds come hard you may want to rethink this whole adventure as I know what it costs to do this from scratch.......

Remember, Cobra parts are regular priced parts x 5...

I found Chuck’s website last night and I’m going to contact him about his drawings. Plus the idea of building my Chassis of an original car is an opportunity that appeals to me.

Great to hear feedback on Chuck’s drawings. It was a question I asked myself “ how detailed are they for the money his asking” so reading that your using them for your car is great.
