yeah, unfortunately in the ACT there's a selection of 4 local and 2 interstate signatories. Of the local, 1 is apparently small engine turbo rice rocket focused and wont give a damn about anything like a cobra, another is a huge pain the the rear end to deal with, I forget about the third, but the fourth guy, who was the only helpful one of the four when I inquired, is THE guy to go to, and cobra act people thought he had already retired when i asked them about it last year. So if i'm going with him, i'd want to get in writing that he'll be around the next couple of years.

I agree with a lot that's already been said but don't let it dampen your enthusiasm. I built my first car with basically no mechanical experience...all I had was a huge willingness to learn and limited budget so I had no choice but to learn as I went. It's amazing what you can achieve when you want something so bad. I asked a LOT of questions, pestered a lot of people and found the Cobra Car Club a wealth of support and advice.
Work with your engineer, ask questions and look at a lot of cars and you will do fine.
Good luck and keep us informed of your progress.

I wish I was retiring next year, I'd only be 32!
