Since you have several bodies that you want to do something with, are the bodies alone for sale?

I assume you mean the 550. Everything minus engine and trans is $120K. There are a number of options that can easily add to this cost, examples include original steering wheel, original brakes (as opposed to 356 for example) in the case of a 4 cam engine option you would also have to have the correct underbelly and oil cooling system. The interior would be in a Porsche correct vinyl but not basket weave. For no upcharge can substitute with leather. The details list can be long but all included in the price.

Please don't be discouraged from replying with your thoughts about the C6 power questions I posted originally. I am still interested in knowing what the friendly cobra fans here think about this. If anyone is interested in knowing about our Spyders you are welcome to email me directly at alloycars@verizon.net or call me at 813-655-8470 so as not to clutter this thread with unrelated stuff.

Thank you

Ozzie

OK, from what I can see in the small pictures, I like the body and can see no reason to gay it up with the chebbie motor or the boat interior. I know that sounds harsh but to go the distance towords originality of making an aluminum body only to back-track that far with the drivetrain and interior just doesn't make sense to me. It smacks of "Darryl Starbird's" hotrod show.

JMHO, Steve

I expected posting the pics would have this effect. The pics were posted to show what the shape of the car is per someones request. the car in the pics is not a/the car we are offering only the body. The Chevy drivetrain was requested and I personally like it, the interior was also by request. The question (and I think I can see what the overwhelming answer here is going to be) is wether anyone reading this forum would consider our alum body cobra with C6 Drive train.

Thank you for the response/opinion
