Cobra bodies/chassis for sale
Hi everyone.
I have very little info at this point, but I was asked last night if I would be or if I knew anyone who may be keen on 2 Cobra bodies and 1 Toyota Crown chassis to suit? So I am guessing the bodies are GeForce kits? I have also asked how complete bodies are (ie doors, bonnet, boot lids etc) The guy was only talking $2k for the lot, in south qld somewhere. Can pass on more as I find out. |
Garage wall art, front on or half a side, garage bench seat for the rear.....
Potential for fun little projects. |
Is there actually any completed Toyota Crown based cars registered? I dont think i have ever seen one other than the ones that circulate on ebay unfinished.
|
There are 3 that I'm aware of and one of those is in NSW..:eek::p..but I guess if an RCM can be registered anything can...:p...:LOL::LOL::LOL:
|
I was thinking more along the lines of a cheap base for a racer project?

They could also be old Autostyling bodies Dave. If so stay well clear, don't think they would even suit a racer. |
I personally am not interested in them (freight to me would kill any chance of them being a bargain)
Just thought I would let others know. |
There was one for sale on the NSW central coast last year, registered, british racing green with a 351 I think, from a very hazy memory. Autostyle I think.

Warwick Harrison "Resurrected" a Crown Chassis Cobra for a client last year....(Not a Harrison Cobra )....
351 Clevo on Gas....goes great/sounds great... I nicknamed it "The Hummer" when I first saw it...It looked ROUGH....but once completed it was a pretty nice car. I see it going around the Northern end of the Gold Coast regularly...I usually hear it coming a mile off..Live/Loud side pipes !...and the owner's is a real hoon. Cheers, Warren |
There was a grey one in Sydney a while back, not sure if it ever got through engineering.

Now if I could just get some plans on how to mod my 1973 Toyota Crown that's sitting outside rusting away, I might find some use for it....
How much work can you put up with for 2K investment for the lot....? If the bodies were sorta ok, and complete, might be a good deal....if you have your own transport and some time. |

I recall talking to a chap from up around the central coast or Newcastle area at the 2008 Nationals who had a toyota chassis, I believe he said it was a bit easier to register back then because the chassis already had a number, this was when I was looking for a kit to buy.
At that time I think G force had a Toyota option but transport coasts to NSW were about $2000.00 which I thought would be better spent on parts He told me he had the body widened by about 3or 4 inches to suit (by Homebush fibreglass I think). A very neat/clean car with probably the widest wheels on a road car I have seen. I liked it. Dennis |
