Dave,
Welcome, but this is going to be a very disappointing post for you.
The hoods or any of the body parts have not been available for years. (unless you can find a private seller)

The grill surround is absolutely not available nor are the windshield corner covers. These were made of a special "plastic" and definitely not available for at least 10-15 yrs now. When I built my last three, we couldn't even get those parts.

The "Boot" can be made at any upholstery shop, especially one that does boat tops!

BUT, right here on Club Cobra is a forum just for the MX owners! I'd give the link out but unfortunately I don't have it. Somebody here will have it for you.

Headers: Had to be custom made as CR's never put side pipes on the Healey's.
Changing the louvers to a scoop is nothing more than money and finding some one to do it. I am one of those guys, but by all means check around!

The Healey's/MX's are powerful little critters on the track too! If all things being equal, including a Driver, the Healey's would beat a Cobra on a road overtime course! Not so much in a "Drag race" but any type of road race the Healey's wold always come out ahead.

Good luck with your new toy!

DV
