Big man in a Cobra?

Thanks for all of the responses. I laughed my ass off at sizzlers. Amazing....

I am committed to a cobra. I am pretty good with fabrication, so I plan to buy one and fabricate as required to get the best fit. I am fairly confident that I could make a standard wheelbase car fit well. I am really just looking for some tips and tricks! For instance:

Any ideas? Sizzler? Sure you've got some!

Well, I seem to have become the day's goat.

Should have thought first before running a mouse in front of a herd of elephants.

Ideas? Sure. But all that I can think of have pretty well been mentioned already. Customization, fabrication, 'suck-it-up', creative denting of wheelwells...

If you want it bad enough, you'll cut off a toe like Cinderella's sister when the prince presented a slipper for fitment.

As for 'looking right'. It's not just height, you should though make sure the roll bar is HIGHER THAN your head. It's also width. It's like me with my Hercules shoulders trying to fit in a TR6. Yeah, I can do it, but my arm and shoulder is hanging out over the side of the car and I look like an ape in a clownmobile driving it. I like TR6's, wish I fit, but I'm a realist, and unfortunately I decided that that wasn't the look for me. You may decide differently. That's why it's called my opinion versus your opinion.

Good Luck.
