The idea of doing this and making money is like any business... hard. One of the challenges you face is the fact that a lot of Cobra guys like building them more than owning them or want to do more than one build but can't justify keeping two cars. (especially when the next one will be done better) Your also competing against a lot of small shops trying to live their dream of making "cars" for a living too.

Another fact to contend with is there is no reason to pay a premium to buy a car "built to sell" from someone who does not have a reputation unless you can figure out how to make the car special.

There are a lot of cars for sale on CobraCountry right now and I suspect there will be plenty more for sale over the next several years.
