I certainly appreciate the engineering effort and execution, but for me a Cobra is a 60's era supercar, with a distinctive charm including all the shortcomings. I would take the Billet excersize and apply it to another group of '60s cars that this group can certainly appreciate- the sports racers like Cooper, Genie, etc. These are really fast track cars that suffer from old suspension technology, unsafe frames or monocoque tubs, and no development. If you stick that chassis under one of those, I think you would have something that no one else has and it would be driveable without the fear of bending irreplaceable parts.
