Looks good, nice work. My seven is still just a frame on the table waiting for me to finish it.

Great work! I can't wait to see you Cobra. I see you are in Poland, maybe you can get a deal from the Kirkham boys.
I wish I knew more about my Polish roots!

Looks real nice, what engine do you have in it? Also, don't forget your wheel centers :)

Kirkham makes a great replica of cobra but aloy shape cost too much for me (worth my lotus twice!!), when I start build it I`ll check how much cost the "fieberglass" body.
Few days ago I found other company with makes this a real nice cobra body.

now about lotus..

It has only 2.0 engine right now but I`ll put into 2.5 or 3.0 V6 motor from 2-4 years old Opel Omega. I dont need more PS, but only nice sound from the hod. I must also make the sound system, this radio on cassets is only cover the whole in wood panel :LOL:

The colour is from the subaru. Car weight 890kg!!, because I used a lot of havy supports to make frame and 1mm brass :D - in Poland we have very poor roads, to light cars is bad for handing... Car has 196cm latitude, others lotus has about 165-70cm. To compare ill give other photos with VW Golf 3
