Need advice: brakes on CMC/StreetBeasts

[mdross1]

Car looks great in gray,remembering back when fitting and assembling my car it was amazing how well everything fit together.Never had any issues at all other than trying to figure out the assembly manual.Always wondered how people without those kinds of skills would ever be able to do it.

Holt,

I check the forum on occasion usually to check for nice parts that I wish I could have and see if any new cobras are hitting the road. This forum is tremendous and I wish I had found it before I started my search for a cobra to build. The manual for this car is worthless, I will say I didn't have any spare parts left over that weren't replaced with higher quality ones. Maybe they made a change after mine(yours)??? If it makes you feel any better for the money I had it that one I could have been driving around in a Kirkam or CSX. I'm the original owner, I traded to garafolo, I thought he was a dealer but he told me he was looking for a car for himself, guess not. Did you buy it from a dealer or individual? If you ever want to sell her let me know. Just once I got it broke in and all the little issues worked out I got rid of it for another car with issues. Every car I've had that I thought wouldn't have issues, had issues!! My luck.

All cars will have issues building them just because! I have a lot in mine but had no choice for the performance level I needed.Redid the frame to get rid of all the mustang stuff,run under car exhaust and set it up for tubular suspension with Coilovers,then had it scaled to road race.Dual WillWood masters for the 12" WillWood Ultralites all around.In the end this car turned out to be as good as any out there regardless of reputation.Love the softtop now looking into hardtop.
