I only know of one Cobra kit that uses a manufacture chassis and that is on a Corvette chassis. I saw it at Knotts one year. I think that they are still in business but not sure. I think it was out of Arizona, but I could be wrong.
Just checked and here it is, http://www.cobrasnvettes.com/

Nope, only power train and suspension come from a Mustang if it's a donor build. Factory 5's have their own chassis.

There are NO cobra kits that use a Mustang chassis. There is one company that used a Corvette chassis, but they're no longer in business. |

Jeff Classic can still get you a fine car built on a Vette chassis. If not on his website then check over at the Arizona Cobras group.

What do you think I am doing? Reading up/making posts is doing homework. Please don't stalk my posts just to write some snotty info.
Thanks to the rest of the people who offered some info. I am sorry I am not knowledgeable on this topic and I am seeking information on it. |

I simply showed you that you need to do more research and you call that stalking. 
The facts show from your post you are out of your element, the facts of your posts also show you do not understand the kit car market and have been speaking to the wrong people who have filled your head with misinformation. Again, I do not see this as stalking, just showing you the error of your ways. If anyone is being snotty here, it is you, not me. 
15 years is the magic number, a kit car already built and turn key must be a minimum of 15 years old to be imported into Canada. There are a myriad of other items that must be satisfied before Trans Canada will allow one of the these cars in to your country. Also, while you imported a Viper in the past, you can throw away everything you learned as kit cars are their own binder at Trans Canada.
maybe it is just a Canadian thing, where you feel that you are smarter than everyone else here.

nope, it's not a Canadian thing...we leave that to the Americans. Keeping in mind I admit I am not knowledgable in the kit/Cobra market, which is why I come here to ask questions, and get help from everyone and criticism from you.
If you want to go to each of my posts pointing out that I am uneducated/needling/pointing, etc...please refrain from "helping" me.

Really though, 2 minutes on the FFR website would have FACTUALLY answered ALL your questions about how they're constructed and saved all this back and forth. Same applies for any other brand.
