Cobras and reliability
I am soon to be a cobra owner and with my excitment I still have some trepidation. I'm doing some of the build myself less the engine, tranny, rearend and body on frame. I'm using people for these aspects of the build who are very reliable, came with great references and I trust completly.
When I go on long trips with my other vehicles (one being a Suburban) I wouldn't think twice about a 400 mile trek. But for some reason I have in the back of my mind that the cobra would't be good for a trip like that. Something could go wrong and leave me on the side of the road. I think my concerns stem from this being a new endevor and never owned something like this. Once I'm finished my build I have a guy locally who services original cobras and fabricates replica cobras who will look it over for me.
So my question laid out for discussion is "do I have a concern or is it all in my head?".
Thanks for the replies.
