He has some great videos of his Street Beast build. At the end of one of his videos, he had given his phone number and said to give him a call if you had a Street Beast Cobra and had any questions. He also mentioned he had some of the inventory lists from Street Beast before they shut down. Of course I called. It took a few days, but he finally sent me the inventory lists (seen below).

I also came across another builder on YouTube who is in the early stages of his it seems, but his YouTube name is "tomscobradfw". Got some ideas from looking around at his chassis in the videos.

Another great resource I had found posted in the Street Beast community forum located on this site's social groups was a website that documented a Street Beast build. Here is the address to that site: 427 Cobra Main Page

Here are the PDF's that "Petes Hotrods" had sent me that he acquired from Street Beast:

Seeing all these pictures of parts sure brought back memories of my build now 21 yrs. ago. Amazing how clear those memories are just shows how excited I was to have one of these cars in my shop.
Remember now took my frame to a shop specializing in this work mine happened to be very straight and square. We modified the frame for belly exhaust, cut off all the frontend mounts to install chrome moly A-Arms. Finally made up a new trans cross member to give the exhaust all the room it would need.
As frustrating as that job got at times it sure paid big dividends in the end. We still cherish that car.
Sure enjoy reading about you guys and your builds. Our car is in a storage garage surrounded by the deepest snow we have seen around here in a long time.
