I'm talking to a guy about his cobra. He said it was a Classic Cobra out of Miami. I can't find anything on these. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

After a little checking, I believe it's a Classic Motor Carriages body. Any info?

Go to the Community to get a better feel for the car and what to look for.

Finished, do a pre purchase inspection

Unfinished, I would not touch it even if it was sold to me for $1.00

These are also known in later years as StreetBeast. You might find more info on that name.

The cars were not bad, but ownership of both companies had a lot to be desired. They are both long gone and many had problems with missing parts when the kits were delivered. If it was cheap, and you are a REAL good fabricator and mechanic and all the major parts are there including the MSO, it might be a good deal for the right price. You will Not find any body parts or other kit specific items for it, so if a door is missing and you cannot hand make one, run away.
