I just googled "black Kirkham" and that was one of the first pics to come up. Definately the same pic going by some of the reflections in the paint. If bdm have flopped a Kirkham for their body tell me where to send the deposit

Back on track though - would love to see some more pics of the completed car.

Cheers
why would you do that, when you reckon youve got australias most original cobra.

Do I really Tommy boy? , What I do reckon though is that people who wouldnt know irony if it walked up and whacked them over the head with an over ripe banana shouldn't comment on what it is "I reckon"

Maybe the ripe banana is the body and the reason for using someone elses BODY picture??.....Did Mr Bedford only design the chassis and not lend the BANANA BODY to flop off...LET THE FLAMING BEGIN!!

Malcolm car looks great ,good luck with the final rego!!!
Though it sounds like you've already had plenty of GoKart action in her already!!!

Im off to bed with the type of tension headache I get trying to teach my bottom year 7 class the difference between ROM and RAM.

It appears that this company has a well designed product that would appeal to many. But using a Kirkham for their ads. Talk about knocking your credibility back a few notches. If they did this without permission then it makes one wonder what else they would do that wasn't on the up & up. They need to fix this fast and I mean fast. Then they need to put this on the site to explain their actions.
I hope they think the Cobra buying public is not too educated about the shape of these cars. You might fool the rookies but not the seasoned experts. From what I saw on the site they do nice work and I'm sure they are doing the best they can. They just need to stand on their own merit without subliminal use of another's product.
Malcomm that is a beauty of a Cobra. I truly am impressed with the suspension. It has to do well in the twisties. I hope you drive the hell out it.
