Thinking about buying a Cobra...

Integrity Coach Works, from Florida, was probably the manufacturer. Here’s one listed on BaT from a couple of years back that might help serve as a photographic guide. There’s also a little bit of info about Integrity in the listing. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...bra-fia-289-3/

As far as Buzz, olddog says it himself in his post above: “...it is very difficult to get a tittle”. Takes me right back to high school, it does.

Thanks for the link. That is very helpful and looks like the same basic kit. The builder is free to take liberties with the powertrain, suspension, etc...

No worries—glad to help. If you go through all the pics in the listing, the last few have some contact info and a name or two for Integrity. I don’t know if any of that would lead anywhere now, but it would be a start if you’re playing detective and want to try and track down the company principals.

I did see that; your a mind reader. I wish the seller had that type of documentation with this car. Unfortunately much comes down to the builder and I’m told they aren’t around any longer.

For example the car may need brakes. How do you buy them without knowing what vehicle donated it’s suspension? I know it has a Jag IRS but what year? What model? The front end? Who knows...

And unfortunately it has an absolutely useless rectangular roll bar and not the U hoop seen on all others. It offers no protection in the event of a roll over. This involves not only welding but drilling holes and filling holes in decklid, paint blending, etc...May be more work than it’s worth.
