Sounds like a wonderful plan..building a cobra with your son. The positive value of this idea is an excellent way to teach him mechanical skills, provide knowledge regarding automotives and inspire both of you to build a great car. Perhaps you can set up a time line with build points and school grade points, something that will give him an obtainable goal.
You may even allow him to drive the darn thing when it's done and will it to him for the future.

I told my son (now 33 years old), he gets my cobra when I croke, so he now keeps telling me to drive it slowly, take good care of it and don't ever sell it.

Anyway, take Rick L.'s suggestion as a good approach an have fun with your build and son.
