My buddy runs a race car chassis shop and they can do ANYTHING from scratch...

The problem is that that cost to make a jig and build a Cobra frame (based on say SPF plans) would take longer and probably cost more than just buying the damn thing.

They were going to build a custom chopper frame based on dimensions from a West Coast Choppers frame. But, they figured that with the jig, welding, etc. they would need to sell 10 frames just to break even.

So, while building your own Cobra chassis can be done, in most cases it probably shouldn't be. Why re-invent the wheel?
