Well said 3183 - and I just quoted you to my wife about why she will not get a roll bar!

So your knuckles might hit the top of the door, they're supposed to!

And the 16" wheel might be a tad close to your thighs, lose some weight. I'm 6-6, and I weighed 230 lbs at the time, with size 14 shoes.


I never complained about ANYTHING, because it was an honor and a privilege to own one. While you owners of replicas only have replicas, you should also feel and respect the car as a truly unique vehicle,,,,,,,,,,,,since not everyone
has one.

Please don't get me started on power steering, cup holders, heated seats, stereo, CD players, 2 roll bars, and wood dashboards !!

Jesus, sometimes I just want to puke.

Go buy a Miata, Corvette, Escalade, something, but quite trying to make a Cobra into something it isn't, and was never intended to be.
