David,
Have to agree with Mr Bruce on this one.....Besides, you and I have spoken about this in the past (gee, I wonder where the Smiths came up with the idea of using one of your bodies on their chassis)

.....Why not simply design some new pick up points for the current chassis if your going to look at an alternate route.......$6,500 for a suspension (not complete mind you), and $1,200 for a steering system is not conducive to turning out a higher volume of work for your labor force....Do you want to cater to a select few who can afford to spend the really big bucks on a Cobra replica, or do you want to cater to the masses....Only you, your family, and your accountant can decide that one...........
Sincerely,
Bill S.
