Hi guys, new guy here and without hijacking the thread, I have a question or two for you.

I'm an Aussie living in Houston Texas and am looking at building a Cobra. I'm debating (for now) on a Lone Star Classics 427 or Factory Five Mk IV. They both seem to fit my budget. I really like the Lone Star because the company is located 4 hours up the road from me (but I will say they seem difficult to get a hold of over the phone). But I really like the FFR Mk IV because I've called them once and got a bunch of help from them already, and for the price, there is more included in the kit.

Anyway, opinions on the two kits would be most welcome and I would really like to hear from any Aussies who've imported them into Aussieland, and how you went about fixing the steering. Oh yeah, please feel free to mention anything that may help me decide between the two.

My plan is to build the kit here, drive it for several years on the wrong side of the road and then bring it back home to Aussie paradise, and most probably NSW.

Well, I sure appreciate any replies I get, and thank you in advance.

Mike
