Hi Mongrel,

I met a guy who said he built a cobra for $25k and sold it for $45k two years later.

Thats what got me interested. However he was pretty handy and did everything himself. Also he did not reco anything. Just banged in the donnor parts as is.

I budgeted $35k but now realise its going to be more like $45k. Although I could have done it a bit cheaper (maybe $3k) by using cheaper parts. Then again could have spent a hell of a lot more.

Regarding Gary's comments about factory five....... I'm not sure Gary realizes that we are talking Australian dollars here. You can probably build one in the USA for 25k USD.

I suggest you take your time and do lots of research. Good luck.

Regards

Cameron
