That's one Excalibre and two Classic Roadsters.

Actually one of the better ways if getting reluctant spouse involved is bring her to a function. There is a reason Cobras have passenger seats. Plus, spouses and significant others are wonderful folks. If yours gets a ride in one of these, she may share your enthusiasm. She can assist with the build also.


Recommend you look at what your world of options really is, and what you want your Cobra to be/do when you're finished building it. How you intend to drive it, will influence how you build it.

Knowledge of A&C is zip. Shell Valley has been around awhile and offers a variety of options. In the same ball park would be Classic Roadsters, and Lone Star. There's a new one by Backdraft Racing that uses BMW suspension and brakes. Then there's FFR, perhaps the most popular.

Keep an open mind, and perhaps a notebook. Take photos, and get phone numbers. What will ultimately steer you to the car you want is little details and intangibles that you likely hadn't thought of.
