Not Ranked
I partly built a wooden buck for the aluminum body several years ago, but I've never completed it. That's why I admire the Kirkham's so much, their cobra is a work of art, from the frame, chassis, suspension etc.....
The problem with creating a 1/4 scale cobra is the time involved, the high cost for aluminum materials today and the very high selling price. The cheaper way is to make a glass body over the aluminum, but I don't feel it would be right having a billet suspension etc...and not a body.
The same pertains to the scale quick change and suspension, that's the reason why I stick with the chrome moly and belt drive system. If I could find another shop that I could use their cnc & lathe for a low hour price, I would think about getting back into building.
