I recently inherited a Classic Roadster II cobra from my late father who had the vehicle built from himself I have been reviewing the pile of paperwork which he has but did not come across a manual for the vehicle. is there anyone who could provide me with a copy or get me in contact with someone who could get me the assembly manual?

DV/All, I posted some more pics of the Cobra on Photobucket.

OK. I no expert, but here's what doesn't look CR to me.

The tranny tunnel looks a lot different than mine. The firewall is not even close and where the wiper posts come through the body looks to wide apart.

Now that being said. My CRII is one of the last ones to come out of Don's place in MN. It has the newer frame with the dropped seat pans and the body had gone through a few refinements in the molds.

my $0.02

The doors on the red cobra in the pictures are not CR, nor is the engine bay
area opening (the corners aren't CR), for starters. Trunk looked a lot different too.

Gents, I believe it is safe to say the car is definately NOT a CR. The only thing that led me down that path was the hood latch. Anyone have any idea who did make this kit?

Also, could anyone give me recommendation on the coil over springs? Does 325 front and 150 rear sound correct?
