Hello, new guy here.

Bobby -

If you are in Ypsilanti, Michigan, you should come by some time. I have an extensive library of brochures of different brands of Cobra kits, and pictures of many, many Cobra replicas. I'd be happy to share my thoughts with you.

I know what you mean about the T'Bird kits - most of them can be spotted a mile away. There are some Cobra kits in that category, too.

I'd be happy to show you the details on my ERA FIA, and, BTW, there are two '57 T'Birds in my garage, too. I'm in White Lake Township, about 45 miles North of Ypsilanti.

regards,

Jeff

thanks for the replys everyone, i will be going to as many ford shows and swap meets as possible this year, hopefully i will see a car i really like or at least that can give me some more ideas, as far as the drivetrain, its going to be cheap, i already have a 5.0 roller motor and a T-5 WC, so all i would really need is a driveshaft and a rear end, i have a 9" that im not using but its from a 65-66 mustang and there somewhat rare so i dont want to narrow it, if its too wide ill just get a 8.8" i am leaning toward black or silver paint with no stripes but i will change my mind at least 500 times on that.

cool! i go to the bakers car show up in the wixom area on sunday nights in spring and summer, your probably not too far from there? looks like you have good taste in cars, is that your mustang also?

[cobrajeff]

Yes, that's my "K" code GT convert that was featured on "My Classic Car" a few years back.

I make it to Baker's a couple times each summer. I figure I'd better be finishing up this T'Bird for my friend instead of out cruisin' all the time (and I need that stall in my garage back).

regards,

Jeff

Someone posted this link a week or two ago. Maybe it will help you.
