First time poster....been lurking and learning for a while as I plan my project. I am considering building a cobra that I may sell after a short period of time....part of the joy is in the building for me....and then start a second one to keep.
From what I have been able to tell, the values of the various kits can vary widely, but I am trying to determine if I can make this work financially. I'm not looking to make money necessarily, but would like to break even with the project if possible.
Could I ask for your opinions on what range you think the car spec'd below should sell for? I am seeing in the 54-59k range in my research, but I need more validation. Also, what would you consider to be a killer price (something that would sell very quickly) on this car? Here goes:
Superformance MKIII Cobra
Red with Titanium stripes
Ceramic coated side pipes, glovebox,
oil cooler, plus all their standard options
Ford 460 Super Cobra Jet 550hp crate motor, demon carb
Tremek TKO500 5-spd tranny
What other features should I consider to make this a more compelling car (if that's possible) from a marketing standpoint?
I know this may be a bit of a funky first post, but I'm a numbers guy, and need to make this work financially before I can get too far down the path.
I appreciate any advice! Thanks in advance!
