I was at the factory today....these cars are awesome....their GT40 is amazing.

It would blow you're tiny mind Zeus if you want to go and get some facts before you write this rubbish.

By the way....
We were also standing around a Factory Five Daytona,in there getting headers made......it was a bloody mess....roughest body I've ever seen.

That car is part of a batch of Factory Five Cars that arrived here on the Gold Coast 7 years ago...5 Daytonas,and one Cobra....I helped unload them from the container.

They were all a bloody nightmare to construct...nothing seemed to fit right,and very poor quality in many of the components...One is registered,and Two more will be registered in a month or so...but that's been 7 years...and the one we were checking out today has a LOT of work to get to rego....so you're experience with Factory Five cars is surprising..but good luck to you.


I don't know where to start on your post?

The first AP chassis to go into proper construction was just on ONE year ago....it's currently a matter of weeks away from being ready for rego.

He has since sold something like 35 AP Cobras to people who have taken the time to come and check out all of the facts ,checked out the product,and made informed decisions to build an AP Cobra.

I'm not sure other Australian Cobra manufacturers started out by building a Prototype,getting it registered,just to start selling to the public?
Maybe BDM,but who else?

If Craig had have built a "practice one" a couple of years ago,it would not really be the same as the current car anyway...there are a lot of innovations and improvements developed in the last 12 months.

Today there were TEN brand new LSA ( 6.2 supercharged 556 h.p.) engines and gear boxes sitting on the racks,just arrived and ready for installation in to Customers cars under construction.
There was one already installed in the Cobra we were checking out.
The whole factory is buzzing,and there is a ton of work going on.

Craig didn't vanish from the forum ...but once you've answered the same rubbish comments a dozen times...there's not much point in feeding the flames.

You might be a bit mixed up on that court case comment also...I think it's the other way around if anything.

Spend a few hours with Craig,and his mobile NEVER stops...but he won't answer calls,while he's talking to someone...he simply cannot get to every call,and returns as many as possible...emails are the best chance I'm told.

I've also seen comments on this forum about how certain clients thought they were on the "do not reply" list ,or some such nonsense ...and then seen on Craig's email screen,where that client had received over 100 emails,over a long period of time,at the rate of once or twice ( or more) emails a week....so don't believe a lot of what you read on this forum.

Your post is full of comments that seem to be intent on trying to hurt Craig's business..I'm not sure what your agenda is...but I'm sure you'd have a completely different attitude if you took the time to go and actually check their operation out.

What are his staff doing???.... FFS.....35 Cobras in 12 months!!...and a truck load of innovations that will completely change how Cobras and GT40s are built in Australia from now on..... You're a hard marker mate.

I don't own an AP Cobra....but I still give credit where credit is due...and I urge you to go and check these machines out...visit the factory,and talk to Craig....
Trust me,you'll be impressed.
Cheers,
Warren.
