Will be up there in the next few weeks. I am exited about the new chassis and body and looking forward to seeing its assembly. I knew it would take a little more than three months to set up, as there was a lot of work and R + D to work through. But the extra wait has been well worth it seeing everything under one roof from fiberglass to assembly. Great photos. Keep them coming.....:3DSMILE: |

OMG I went to Absolute Pace today and it's Awesome. I could have stayed there all day! Craig gave my wife and I the grand tour and we finalized the build details for my Kit.
Big Thank you to Craig and his team You guys are doing outstanding job and the workmanship is 1st class. Cheers Darryl |
Darryl, it was a pleasure to have you both there. I really like the idea of showing customers exactly how the kits are manufactured, you can see exactly what you are getting and how we achieve the end product. Next time I will show you the design side of things and lots more, just never enough time.

Great looking facility...I would like to see some more of our builders have half as much organization as your facility seems to have. Good Luck.

Clois, I don't know if you remember but we met at Run & Gun in 2008. Anyway, really appreciate your comments, it's great to get compliments like this from guys like yourself. :)

Some updated photos of the fabrication shop in our 2nd building.
It is where all the main aluminium and steel weding is performed. (We also have a small welding bay in the main building.) Also where we perform the following activities: Body assembly onto chassis Chassis testing Small Item Fabrication Storage etc http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...1600x1200_.JPG http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...1600x1200_.JPG http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...1600x1200_.JPG |

Thanks for the update |

There are more than 10 chassis worth of material there. Due to the custom nature of our extrusion alloy grades, we need to order in bulk. So yours is there. :) |
Hi Craig,
It looks like I'll be in Brisbane on Friday. Are you guys up for a visitor? Cheers |

Hi Mike
I will be starting to put all the suspension bits and pieces into my chassis on friday so you will be able to see first hand how easy these little beauties go together I might let you hold the other end of the bolt if you are so inclined. It will be good to get another opinion on the car first hand from a dedicated Cobra owner. Bring your camera and you won't be disappointed with your photos. Cheers Brad |
I don't know if I'm qualified. Plus you don't want me anywhere near your car or it'll never be finished. :)
|
Brad, your Cobra should be rolling by the weekend?
