Default Details:

Hello Bill, You do not understand. CSX2498 is a complete original 289 cobra. The only big change is a set of magnesium 5 spoke dragonsnake wheels. Everything else is just like it was delivered in '65. I have not touched that car for any part of my build.

The 427 I am building is a completely seperate car. I fabricated the chassis from the CR prints, and I fabricated most of the other pieces & parts you see in the photos. I purchased a complete CSX4000 suspension to bolt onto my chassis, and I just purchased a alum 427 body to cover everything. When $$$ is available I will install a 427 and a toploader to finish the project.

Regards, Karl
