Hi Roberto.

I've got one of Rob's (GForce) cobras. Just waiting on going to registration now as it's pretty much finished. I'm really pleased with it.

Rob has a chassis specifically for the Coyote now and does a lot of work on them.

I went for a Boss 290 engine in mine which has given a few challenges due to its size but it got shoehorned in after a fashion.

Wiring was tricky and I found a great Auto-electrician who was able to wire the whole thing for a great price. He's also a really nice guy to deal with.

Depending on the kit you buy, you may or may not have to source the parts yourself. GForce, for example, you can source the parts yourself or get them through Rob. His prices are very reasonable. I would recommend that for bits in the engine bay, you speak to him as items like extractors, steering columns etc. unless you are a fabricator, they can get tricky.

There are companies like Factory Five our of America that now have contacts in Australia and these are pretty much Cobra-in-a-box. You just select your engine/gearbox etc. and build it up from all the parts. I'm making it sound easier than it is of course, but you get most/if not all of the parts when you buy it.

Either way, it comes down to your level of enthusiasm and ability.

Anything I can do to help, let me know.

Adam.
