Based solely on this question I would have to say NO. Absolutely not.

Yes you can put AC in your cobra
[I have a small cobra company I just finished one for a customer. You have to loose the glove compartment,and buy a compact AC unit, depending on the motor you have. You may have to change your brackets. If you buy a cobra and won't AC,E-mail me and I'll send you the info. you need on it. YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH A COBRA.Even if you decide you don't like it you can make a good profit on it. If you are looking to buy one, I HAVE KIT'S STARTING AT $5.000 to $25.ooo. I have one of the easy build's on the market.I hope you join the wonderful world of cobras it's a BLAST of fun any time!!! PS you do not have to buy any thing from me for me to help you with any build you are working on.I LOVE TO BUILD & HELP BUILD CARS & BIKES. I HAVE 25 YEARS EXPERIENCE BUILDING. Please feel free to contact me any time at (ezbuildcobras@verzion.net) THANK YOU FOR TIME.

Another insolicited offer. Just think, a Cobra kit builder that says the car is the right one and that there's a bunch of profit if it's not. Gotta be true. Maybe we should start a thread on all the profit makers here. The ONLY way that I could see a "good profit" (whatever that is) on a Cobra is if you built it with all USED parts. These cars ,typically, you get what you pay for. Someone that builds a good replica will have too much in it to make any decent profit. Someone that plunks together used junk in a new wrapper can make lots of profit while generating a bad name for builders that are a little more "detail oriented".

YOu keywords... "GOOD PROFIT." I believe that, IF you do all the work yourself and don't use junk, you can get SOME profit. But it will be marginal at best. Probably not just abrely enough to pay for your tax and registration fees. Bottom line though... if you put the time and effort into it instead of the money for someone else to put their time and effort into it, you won't be upside down.
It also helps to know people... My best friend is a painter by trade so we will paint the car at the cost of materials.

Assolutely spot on. I wished I could do Andrew Dice Clay's little whiney voice and read the freeking question out loud here.
I would suggest you abandon your account that you started the thread with, and open a new one. Do not admit to anyone that you ever asked this question.
WTF is this lately...damn PTA with Volvos parked outside?

I notice most of the post regarding my a/c question are from people living in beautiful CA. Its now Oct 1st and its still hot and humid as hell outdside. Theres no way anyone here in DFW could drive a non a/c car to work and appear presentable when they arrived.
So assuming the car is not a dd and more of a fun fair weather car (ie. nighttime or short day cruises around town), im asking myself dollar spent vs. time driven is it a wise investment?
No.
But it just wont stop calling out my name, and i havent even been in one yet. 
BTW guys, im going down to Lone Star Classsics tomorrow to snoop around. One step closer to the dark side.
