foothills gary,

side impact protection in a Cobra? A few are stronger than others, but these cars are about as safe as driving a motorcycle if you get T-boned in the side. Maybe worse, being strapped in. The only Cobra replica cars I've seen that have completely eliminated cowl shake are the ones that have the body bonded and rivoted to the chassis. I believe BDR is a bolt-on, aren't they? Don't believe a salesperson until they take you over a set of heavy railroad tracks several times. This test eliminates the solid cars from the shakey ones! Good Luck.
