Firstly, you get what you pay for. Laurie's kit ($7,800) undercuts everything else on the market by thousands.
Dose it come with a tax recept??.

Of course it came with a tax invoice. It was the first thing my engineer wanted to see.
David, pull you head in. Your comments in this thread are way out of line.

As a casual visitor and interested observer in the goings on in here, I can only concur with Nasstys Comments.
David you really do need to pull your head in mate. Its plainly obvious you havent endeared yourself (on the whole) to members of the cobra community in the past, and you are really not contributing much at present apart from another unsuccessful fore into the cobra and part supply business. Your occaisional seagull impressions, where you come in from time to time, make a lot of noise and $hit on everything and everyone, and pi$$ back off to where you came from arent really relevant anymore. If you have something positive to say, by all means say it, but if all your going to do is make continued smart arse remarks about someone who on the whole HAS endeared himself to to cobra community, then you just really shouldnt bother.
my 2 cents!

Building yourself is a very satisfying experience. Gives u a project in the shed when ya missus is getting up ya nose.
Even if you are not mechanically oriented help is not too far away. Most anything you want to know can be found here.
You'll prolly find u end up doing stuff more than once but that's all in the learning process.
When you're finished you'll know every nut/bolt on the car and will be able to diagnose any little problem you may have later on. I know blokes who have bought second hand and they spend a small fortune to fix the car when something goes pear shaped because they don't really know the thing or are a little unsure of how to go about it.
Building it yourself gives you a whole different perspective on the thing.

Dear storm427 (casual visitor, 1 post)
As to the past, that’s the past. I’m trying to help were I can (it’s you guys that are stuffing it up, not me), or in any way trying to sell anything. I show what I have made and put a small amount on it (a lot of is for the love of it) and it’s not to cop this sort of rubbish.
Over the past year I have been building parts and talking to the cobra community and dealers, and as a hole there loosing interest with the forum. Now I know why.
I have no problems with anyone (well maybe now). And so long as the cobra guys want my stuff ill keep building it for them, so I’m doing fine, I’m not out to push or do the hard sell, I’m only doing it for what the guys want
I don’t slag on quality, or effort, if Nassty, or anyone put the hard yards in good luck and well done.
I’m speaking from experience. good and the bad ones. I’m trying not to see people have the wool pulled over there eyes for the love of a car.
As a builder, parts supplier etc, I’ve seen and herd a lot, and it doesn’t count if you build 1x cobra or a couple, that doesn’t make you become an expert, or an engineer.
If I here crap, I’ll try to put the record straight.
Sometimes the truth is hard to hear…

Well then GO!
Firstly you LABEL Nassty's Cobra as 'not as good' then accuse his kit builder of tax fraud.
Poor Nassty just loves his Cobra and you are down playing his pride and joy all in an effort to hassle the person who built his kit. I don't know where he got his kit or the quality but all you are doing is making Nassty think his Cobra is sub-standard.
Nassty build a beast, post the pics and we will all see them. Maybe Venom0427 won't becasue he is obviously to good for this forum
