building a cobra from basically scratch

[boxhead]

As long as you promise not to be offended.

First pictures show headers, these I realise are not a structural part of the vehicle but they look nasty how they are skinny then flare out then back into skinny. I realise you "get away with it" because they are wrapped under the header tape, but if I personally was to sell someone a car knowing it was like that, I would be embarassed.

The chassis rail below the headers looks like a lump of 4x2 that I would make a box trailer out of.

Have you added any strengthening to pedal area yet, that glass will flex, and under a heavy brake application, may just push the master cylinder off the firewall. It will need more than a piece of steel bonded into the area.

You where asked about a tailshaft loop, your reply was "If this was MY car I would, But I'm building this car to turn a profit and keep my boss happy. My boss want's me to do everything half ass, but I refuse to" yet you say you refuse to do anything not right? What is it?

It looks like you have hoses cable tied to brake pipes?

The small bracket that looks to be holding hand brake cable, weld looks decent but that will be a fair bit of weight when the car is vibrating down the road. pretty sure that over time that weld will flex and crack.

You have modified a factory control arm, that would straight up be a fail for rego in Australia, weather you have strengthened it or not.

That is a very big angle on the steering uni joint, I am not sure but I thought no more that 30 degrees was the norm?
I see your looking at fixing that so hope all turns out well there.

As I said, maybe we over do it in Oz? and like yourself I too am a qualified motor mechanic, been waving spanners as a tech since 1987.

This is my opinion only, so take it as you will.
