Well after too many years of reading about Cobras, talking about Cobras, and attending Cobra related events, and with my wife's encouragement, I just jumped right in and bought an incomplete, partially assembled, imported from England, Pilgrim Sumo cobra replica. From all my research I know its not the best kit available and I dont think its the worst, but the price was right ( broke Curt Scott's first rule), the kit was close enough for me to pick up over a weekend with my truck and a borrowed trailer, and since I'm a professional mechanic I wont run into anything that scares me (I hope).
. I welcome ANY comments, any information and any help anyone might want to offer. It appears that there is at least one more pilgrim owner here in the US judging by the search I did of our membership (thanks Brent) who I would appreciate hearing from if he/she reads this. And of course anyone with any knowledge of these cars should chime in especially our UK members, any info would be greatly appreciated. The gelcoated fiberglass (fibreglass in the UK) is in really excellent condition and will require little work to get it ready for paint. The frame and center tunnel are galvanized to retard rust and there is already an independent rear suspension installed, which I need to identify at this point. No front suspension present just attachment points.
