i'm also think to go slabside route
early competition look with forward brace rollbar cutback doors maybe historically correct, but i still prefer normal doors regards ozgur @ istanbul Quote:

Hi
There was some discussion about this head lamp here http://www.clubcobra.com/forums/show...dy+buck&page=2 Is it same lamp used for all models? There was some hella part no mentiod in that thread and I find some pdf from hella web page and I use those measures. This "-18 mm offset from outside surface than cover with 18 mm plywood strips" is an exelent Idea. Looks great ;-) |
Hi to all

i'm waiting for accessories to give finishing touch to buck.

Ozgur
More pics, looks great! Thanks Jeff |
Wow! That's coming along nicely!**)
I'll second the "more pictures please!". |
here it's an another aerial shot
i've decide to built fastback hardtop with integrated A post/pillar and windscreen. what do you think about this idea ? regards ozgur @ istanbul http://lh4.ggpht.com/_V7qa_5pfXNo/SW...5012009385.jpg |

Oz, will the top with the integrated windscreen still be removable? If so its an intriguing idea - Pop the top and put on a comp screen for a totally different look. The only concern - if indeed the roof structure will be removable - will be how to stiffen the roof to windshield attachment point to prevent twisting/bending and resultant alignment issues when it is handled.
Beautiful work - the lines and shape of the buck look absolutely exquisite! |

This will be the one you are referring to, I think the "T" car is better, but then I'm biassed! :LOL: http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t...0070826026.jpg http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t...n/DSC_0722.jpg http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t...n/DSC_0714.jpg http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t...DSC_0002-2.jpg |
G'day Buzz
Yes, all hardtop w/ windscreen assembly will be removable There is no attachment between Roof and A pillars since all of them one big structure. Material of body and hardtop will be autoclave cured carbon fiber for the open look, I'm playing with wraparound racing screen idea Regards Ozgur Quote:

Hey WingCo,
T car is very nice, but funny think is I've to choose smaller one since she's left hand drive ! As you may notice body shape that I'm trying to finish is eclectic mix of cobra versions USRRC body but normal doors (like csx3002) instead of cut-back and slabside front & rear fender lips Regards Ozgur Quote:

Hey
I'm still working on hardtop and thinking about shape of rear glass http://lh5.ggpht.com/_V7qa_5pfXNo/SW...2012009402.jpg |
Looking good!
BTW, CSX3002 has conventional doors, not cut-back like the FIA cars have. Larry |
thank you
i know, i give reference to csx3002, because of front radiator opening like 260 & 289 but rest of body like usrrc/fia with normal doors and without fia luggage humps on the trunk lit Quote:
