Finally took the plunge - New 427SC kit on order!

You won't regret buying one of Craig's cars, the work that has gone into the development is second to none.

Thanks Gav.

Yeah, Craig has been very professional and reassuring. Someone I know has built two Harrison's and they are an excellent kit (and Warwick is a lovely guy too) and I strongly considered getting one myself, but I'm kind of an early adopter and wanted a kit that offers what the others currently don't - an all-aluminium chassis. Plus the Pace 427SC body is to die for!

I know I'll be running the classic 15" wheels as I love that look - most of the car will be fitted with original-styled parts as opposed to the 'newer' parts that some have chosen to fit. Powertrain-wise, I'm thinking of either an LS3 or possibly a Ford Coyote motor....but I don't have to have a Ford motor and like the extra 1200cc that the LS3 offers.

And, as I own a bodyshop, I'll be doing the paint and finish myself as well....although I'm completely undecided on colour at this point!

I've found the Australian Cobra Club forum very informative and have enjoyed reading the posts and learning. Happy to finally be official and no longer a lurker!

I can recommend the LS3. I have one with a supercharger on it and it is a great drive. Enough hp at the wheels to scare anyone and the throttle response in any gear is outstanding.

Best of luck with your car.
