[Brose]

I'm 32 and just beginning the assembly of my Classic Roadsters cobra. I started with the CR Healey replica as a compromise to my wife (roll-up windows, etc.) but made the correct executive decision in the end.

I've been accumulating parts for about a year and will finally start on turning my frame into a roller this week. Part of my motivation to complete my car is that no-one, not my family, my friends or coworkers, thinks I will actually complete the project. Nothing like galvanizing my spirit!

My build is somewhat politically incorrect in that I'm dropping in a Corvette L98 instead of a Ford. I'm not motivated by any particular loyalty one way or the other but happened to have easy access to this engine. And nay sayers be damned because when I finally rumble down the road the gawkers aint gonna care!!
