I met a 68 year old man at a truck show that had Ford pickup
that he hand built the frame from stainless steel and then hand polished the whole thing The aluminum engine was entirely polished as was the trans and rear. The whole body lifted up and displayed the chassis. He had engineered it so that nothing had
to be disconected to do this. He told me he worked 4 years for
about 8-10 hours a day 6 days a week to finish it. Of course he took 1st. place in the judging. So I guess given enough time and the talent you could build a Cobra from scratch,but you better have a lot of time and patience.
