E Bay COBRA! WOW! GOTTA LOOK!!
Alright, I usually don't bash another's car but geez wait till you see this POS! I mean I need a Tetanus shot just to look at it. Remember, all the hard work is done already. So the remainder should be an easy build!! Enjoy: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1966-...f63828d5#v4-32 :)

That's tragic. Somebody started out some time ago with a dream in mind and it didn't work out. How many times has that happened!? I feel sorry for not only the guy but the car.
|
"Hard to describe in words, pictures accurately depict the car.":LOL:
Uh, yeah. :JEKYLHYDE Edit: The bigger issue is that his description is comically inaccurate/optimistic. He'd get more sympathy from me if he told a story like what redmt was suggesting (if that is indeed the case). |
does the whole nose fold down for less wind resistance at speed???...sort of a take off on 427 street front lisence bracket?
|
Looks like it has been sitting out in the rain and wind. Wonder why they cut around the front fenders and the sides of the cowl ????? :confused:
The icing on the cake is the Chevy engine :LOL: Maybe the guy was really enthused to build it and finish it right when he saw our thread about having a Chevy engine in a Cobra and realized he was wasting his time with that car/engine combination. It may have been OUR THREAD that caused him to become dissolusioned and abandon his work !!! :CRY: . . . :rolleyes: . |
One man's trash is another man's treasure... :LOL:
This should be a sticky on the scratch build forum under "what not to do". |
I good project gone terribly wrong.... run !
|
I think you guys are being to hard on this car. Come on! I mean the engine ran last year.....how bad could it possibly be?:D
|
A couple rattle cans of Krylon and a few coats of Zaino and she'd be looking fine. :3DSMILE:
|
There was no love here.%/

Understatement of the year!
"Still needs some more attention though" And he forgot to mentioon double roll bars - one in the front! very funny! |

Wish I had this to share with the caller yesterday looking for "a steal" and could not understand the difference in cost between an unassembled kit and a roller.

The icing on mine is the chevy engine |
Hummmm! Now that would be a challenge of monumental proportions! Good luck to who ever makes this their project.
|
Some April Fool's jokes go too far.
Much too far. |
I must have done something! The listing has been pulled! Thanks for posting the picture. It really all comes down to the details: the 2" galvanized pipe for the upper radiator hose, the water bottle for a puke tank, the open panels give you the "real" feeling of driving a roadster, the double roll bars (where's patrickt when you need him??), the arc "goober" welds construction was nice, and not to mention the Cobra mural on the nose. It really is a mess! But hey it's all in what some people see!
