To put it in words, all of the cars parts are a minimum of 23 (!!) years old. Most builders use a donor which has some mileage on it or it's a crashed and a few years old.

No kit car that or other brand is worth $32k not running and that age with issues.

Get a Porsche 911 (996) convertible. If you spend $30K you get a low mileage car with all bells and whistles.



You need to love a Cobra - otherwise she will bite you. Cobra time is not only on the road....






No offense, it sees to me you are not a Cobra guy - sorry to be so blunt, but this keeps you from a great disappointment.
