Hello Kajo.
Ditto to the above.
Your right about the "street racer", this car is not meant to be a primary means of transportation. The suspension systems offered by most of the kit car manufactures are far superior to most production cars. I believe JBL has there own custom designed suspension, whereas other manufacturers give you a choice of suspensions like a Corvette, Ford or Jag. Other kits like Unique use anywhere from stock Jaguar IRS to highly modified Jaguar IRS. Check out this suspension offered by
Accurate Machine Products
As noted by Jim Colman, you need to check out
www.cobracountry.com and click on the "manufacturers" link.
Consider buying the latest copy of the "Cobra Buyers Guide" (also found at
www.cobracountry.com) It's a good resource to have.
Even my Cobra, which is a moderately priced kit, uses a modified Ford 9" rear with a solid 4-link design. Yes, I also have 4 wheel disk brakes. You will have no problem finding the suspension and braking design you want.
If building a car is not your forte, there are many pre-owned, pre-built Cobras for sale. Look for the link at the cobracountry site and check out
House of Cobras. If you want the Ultimate in (better than) reproduction all the way down to a genuine all aluminum body, you've got to check out
Kirkham Motorsports.
You are undoubtedly on the right track looking at the Cobra, you will not only own a car that will have 99% of other rides eating your dust, but you will own a car that will unquestionably attract attention wherever you drive!
Please do not hesitate to post if you have any questions. I have found this forum extremely helpful and informative.
Good Luck
