I am happy to announce that in the event Mr. Mustang is unavailable I would gladly take the gratis trip to evaluate your facility to examine your procedures/results and report on same! I have no particular expertise but am retired with lots of free time and never get to go anyplace.

Let's see:

1) Florida based business
2) Seems to sell abroad
3) Nobody here familiar with the man/company (and goes by another name)
3) 150 undocumented Cobras

I'd be leary.

After a careful analysis of Alloycar's apparent business model I believe they may be onto something! I have decided to replace my dating profile picture with that of Tom Cruise! After all, we are both men and virtually identical except for the genetics; diet and 30 years. This should increase my dating prospects from abysmal to.....well, better. I will tell women who respond that I have dated hundreds of models, offering no substantive proof, offering that they are established "super models" in Europe and South Africa. If they question my photo I will lash out angrily at them. Gotta go, this could be exactly what I have needed! No more porn sites for this kid!

But it doesn't you see...
I don't mean to be rude, but how do I know those pictures are of your cars...

Just saying you have precedence not helping you here...

Best of luck with your venture.

Certainly sounds sincere, but you haven't started here on very good footing...

I wish you best of luck and would enjoy you posting some completed photos of your Cobras with maybe some customer testimonials about their experience.

I still must ask why folks like Kirkham or PanelCraft don't seem to know you.

We never made advertising for our products. Even for our Spyder and, Hell, we are busy.

As you have seen at our website we are getting warmed with our MK5 so there is a ready car which is sanded and it will not be painted. In fact it is going on the road tomorrow. You can see it at over the webcams only but soon we will have some nice pictures.
The blue car on the website represents what will be the final look with a blue dress. One of my employees gave it to me mentioning that this is FFR car and they are our suppliers for the main chassis.
We have decided for not painting, brushing or polishing the first cars we are doing for us, just a basic sanding to show the aluminum body. Polishing the body is nice too but we are not offering polished cars as it is too labor extensive/expensive here in the USA.

So, FFR is your supplier for the frame. FF5 does not TIG weld their frames they are MIG welded - besides that, in your pictures it does not show an FF5 frame.

Your website: "Chassis and parts:
- Complete TIG-welded chassis."


You called on Bill B***SH!t - I call on you now BS. You guys need to get your website and attitude together - otherwise you lose 10 potential customer per hour.

In the last 2 hour I read more misleading advertisement and conflicting stories then in the last year (and that year was long).


Interesting is this youtube clip....just by listening to this gentleman, it becomes very clear the little role of yours in the development of that car....

"Tom", I suspect you are one of the following players:

ROBERT ATANASOV (Typical southern Florida used car dealer)
INGO POTH (supposedly president of the Company since 2012 when the company incorporated)
I kind of doubt you are actually Cristiane Roget (abnewwire PR firm).

Perhaps you are really Carlos Chomut the webmaster for your site, seeing how quickly the items that you claimed were yours and actually called out on were removed in a wholesale fashion.

I see that KOAMTV had a nice self reported (Cristiane did do nice work on it) PR piece on your company, perhaps they would like to do a follow up once a link to this particular thread on club cobra finds it's way in to their inbox.

I will however call you out on your claim of 150 aluminum cobra replicas being built and shipped overseas. I say this as I personally had some enlightening overnight correspondence with a rather well connected Brazilian specialty car broker I've done business with who has never heard of you, nor has seen more than a few Aluminum Cobras in his country (Kirkhams and originals, and one hand built about 10 years ago).

Regardless of the pile of manure you spread here, here is wishing you the happiest of holidays.



Bill S.

Florida is a short hop to Cuba now and the Carpet Baggers will be flocking there soon! Spend the money you offered MrMustang and book that flight!

Berni,
If you make your way to the South Bay, bring your hood ornament.

OK Rodney, you got me there. Didn't realize you were talking about my avatar. Sure, I'll bring her. You pay the freight and a nice dinner at Mama's! I could have a few hurdles on the homefront though, but anything for a fellow member!
