Why I ask?....
I'm picking up my new kit this weekend:D
It has been set up for a 90Litre LPG tank, for dedicated LPG system, and when I saw the body last week I saw how much room I had left in the boot...room??what room?? So when my misses wants to go away for a dirty weekend in the Cobra with me :cool: , I will need to take some change of clothes and other stuff for both of us. Preferably if I can get a nice rack (not for the wife) that is removeable I can then, only when required, add the rack and lug around a case. Can you get one that wouldn't require any holes being drilled into the body? Just wanted to see what they loooked like on the cobra before I considered it further. Doesn't look too bad actually. |
Dirty weekend in the Cobra hmmmm..........
I'm with Stiff, buy an MGA. Take the 4wd and have a real dirty weekend:D |
Mga?
Thanks for the support Stiffy and Pete...
Just gotta find a way of getting a 427 into and MGA now... |
some people just dont get it auscobra....as these arent very practical cars as it is ...some of us would like to drive them more ...and if it means strapppin a rack to the back so I can drive it ..then so be it :) I can take the rack off as soon as I get where it is I need to go ...cripes you damm near need the rack to go for a few things from the store. :) My rack just straps on ...I will for sure take a few pics tonight for you auscobra ...P.S never actually had the rack on but nice to know I have it if I need it

Gee, I have seen Shelby American photos showing the luggage rack as an available option. Why would folks poo-poo that idea? I like it!

Well, shot down in flames - each to their own!
One problem you will have with a rack is that it will obstruct the high vis brake light especially when loaded. |

The biggest problem with exposed luggage is that you want to protect it from rain, dust, dirt, insects etc. So would need to be enclosed in plastic(garbage bags etc) or use one of those plastic pod things or make similiar.
If it does block the high-level brake light, you could wire in a socket at the back of the cockpit, even on a lead under the seat and plug in another high-level brake light that attaches to luggage rack. Don't know what you guys are complaining about with luggage space, with GT40 you need to bring friends with plenty of boot space. :eek: |
Craig,
I remember seeing Paul G's luggage space at the last x-mas do and you are right. A make up and toiletry bag and that was it:o Even then Paul had to dismantle the front bonnet to get the luggage out. Cobra's are pretty spacious when comparing with a GT40;) |

Really interested if anyone else in Aus has done a luggage rack. I can't remember seeing one. |
Stuff the undies in the side pockets and the shirt and pants behind the seat.
That'll leave all the tiny boot space for the lady's dress and shoes. ;) |
