B&B new coupe chassis
3 Attachment(s)
I wanted to post a few pictures of the new B&B coupe chassis, this was all computer designed space frame that has now taken the place of the old B&B rectangular tube chassis, the leg room is now much better the seats are now dropped down 2" the rear end is now set-up with a parallel 4 bar with a pan hard bar I will have more shots of the rolling chassis in the days to come.

I have heard great things about your chassis. I would like to receive some more information on this. I would like to see what i have to do to get one.

New B&B coupe chassis
thanks for the response, please go over to www.bandbroadster.com to get full details on the coupe but I can tell you that we are offering the complete coupe kit, the new tube chassis front and rear suspension, glass, gauges, tank, wiring, steering, headers and pipes a very complete package for 17,995 as a roller.

This sounds like an AD to me. I have never heard anything about the chassis, sorry. But a first time poster has heard GREAT things..and tracked down this post on CC, sounds like a future employee.

There was previous posts about the chassis. Check out some of Clois' posts about it. Jim

B&B coupe
thanks Jim, I am not sure why this other post was needed I have been working on this project for several years and have had many post over the last few months, and even though he is not part of the project anymore a great deal of thanks is needed to Clois and all of his help over the years, he has had many post on his coupe back in the first few months of the project, so again thanks jim and many many thanks to Clois.

You guys build a great car. I'll be taking my cobra out of winter storage this week. I've had it on the road 8 years. Still on my first battery. The only problems I had so far was a broken door latch and destroyed a transmission. Both my fault. Jim

B&B coupe
thanks again Jim for the kind words I am glad you are enjoying the car, If I can ever get you anything please let me Know.

I don't know that Bryan and B&B need any defense, they have good reputations for B&B's Cobra roadster and '34 Coupe. As Bryan says, the Street Coupe is a new design based on an earlier roadster/street coupe design. I have mine on order and hope that the pics that Bryan posted are of my chassis. Keep things rolling, Bryan; I'm really getting the itch to get rolling on my build. The engine is on the test stand and should be ready in about two weeks.

thanks lawrence, and yes that is your chassis, if you get a chance post a few pictures up, I sent you a lot more shots then I posted here on clubcobra, i also have a few shots of your body straight out of the mold as you will see not very much body work, you will not even see any molds seems since we have them all hidden and not up on top of the fenders and nose. I hope to have your car done in a week or two. talk to you later.

Boy, that body looks great! Even better than the one that I saw when I was up there. The reflections on the body look like I'll have to do a minimum of massaging with the long board to get it flat. And the seams look like they'll take a lot less filling and preping than the ones on my FFR. I'll post some more of the chassis pics that you sent me this evening.
Thanks |

Here are some pics of the engine on the stand being run in waiting on the rest of the car. I still have to change out the oil pan that was on it when I bought it and the old carb that the guy threw in with the engine will have to be upgraded but if the car's ready in a couple of weeks the engine will be ready for it. Can't wait!

Thanks Lawrence, the pictures look good, that engine is going to look much better in the chassis in a few weeks then it does on the stand, I will send over more shots this week after all of the suspension is installed.
