Where are you located? There are plenty of Harrisons and most other manufacturer's cars that gather at Hope Island once a month if you're in SEQ (once the whole area resurfaces after this crazy weather...)

Hi Robthon, welcome to the forum.
I have built 2 kits so far, the 1st was a DRB and the 2nd a Harrison. As the DRB was my first build it was naturally more difficult but it made the Harrison biuld a much easier project to complete.
I had no real issue with the Harrison build although mine was one of the earlier kits and at the time Warwick Harrison did not have a build manual available. The only other issue i had was that the drivers door did not fit with the mould of the rest of the body but i believe that has now been rectified.
All in all though i was exceptionally happy with the finished product and ease of the build, although i did have a bit of prior experience. I have a few photos of the car in my gallery if you wanted to check it out.
I would be happy to have a chat to you about my experiences with the build and Harrison Cobras in general if you'd like, just message me and i will give you my number.
Cheers and all the best with your decision.

Well it's been nearly three weeks since we heard from him, and it was his first post, so either:

he's not yet up with forum etiquette that usually expects an enquirer will acknowledge any replies he receives, even briefly,

or, he's bogged down in research about Harrisons and simply hasn't had a chance to get back to us,

or, Mum said he can't have one.

It's probably option 3 Don, that'd dampen his enthusiasm.
The secret is to pretend you didn't hear her!
