Possibility you have an RUCC kit. Not sure why you deleted your posts and photos but if you are still around you might compare what you have to some of the details in this.
Cobra from the 1st state (pics and video))
I think their main frame rails were 2x4 inch which appeared light compared to other ladder chassis cars - but they used a backbone frame design which was very beefy and had good cowl and door structure. Seems that I remember from your deleted pictures that they have the same wide door threshold and the same hood latch detail. I could be wrong.
DanEC, Thanks for getting back to me. I deleted the past info for a couple of reasons, very little input coming back about opinions on the manufacture and since the deal has not yet been made yet for the Cobra (if the seller and I feel the trade is worth making), I was trying to keep some privacy for the seller.
I checked out those pages (thank you) and see many things similar; Door latches and hinges, hood pin placement, inner engine cowl, floor pans and trunk that are the same as the pictures of RAW’s and first state sites. Unless other manufactures had these same combinations (and from my hours of searching I have not found any) I have surmised this may have been a early RC Car Crafters. Things different from the pictures may have also been the builders choice.
I have highlighted the similarities below.
My reason for trying to find the manufacture is to get an idea of the Cobra reputation and build quality. I need to know I’m getting a decent “base” cobra – all those little things like the oil filter relocation, seats, carpet, gauge layout etc can be made the way I want them to be (with the costs being taken into consideration).
If any of you guys have owned a RUCC kit I would like to hear your constructive thoughts on the frame and fiberglass.
I will be going back to the owner in the next couple of weeks for another inspection and test run of each others “rides” before I make a final decision.
