This car is custom made too, 100%, lower, wider, and a bit different shape, and even has custom emblems on it, code named Lister COOX 001 - as a reference. The entire chassis, body/front and rear clips, dash, windshield, wheels, electrical, and more were all custom made. Our body guy spent 6mos. on/off on the front clip alone. It was a creation project for a good friend I grew up with. The only thing not hand made was parts of the suspension, gauges, engine/trans. He wanted something different other than a Cobra, and that's what we ended up with. Its a fun conversation piece. Handles like its on rails with the custom suspension setup we did on the car; 383 stroker, 2200lbs. Goes pretty good. It was something to create and build once.

Duane, wow, thanks for this information, so all custome built, congratulations the lines are cool So why the large hood embelishment/air intake. Is it possible to see the engine? The car reminds me of the one Bill Cosby has, with dual Paxtons, thus my previous question. Obviously these guys dont run with the pack, they lead it, am I right?

Awesome, thanks. John, AKA tin-man
