[1998 302 cobra]

Evening,

I am looking at buying a 1998 classic roadster that is put together and is running., no body work or paint, doors not on. IS this year a classic roadster II?? Car 302 with automatic. Car has 78 granada front end and mustang 8.8 rear end. Chevette steering colum. I have only seen pictures of the car and a video of the car running. Im about 7 hours away. I wanted know if the granada front end will be ok to use. Guy says he has all of the parts to finish the car besides roll bar. He has the certificate of origin. I'm a little tentative as i know they don't produce these any more and the business went through several owners. This is the only place i could find for parts and answers.


looking for info on:
How easy to finish body and paint?
Roll bar / would have to make my own???
tires and rim size that fit?? I could only find recommendations for 2002 CR II
found steering colums and cobra steering wheels.
Fit and finish
what car is worth ball park finished.
Guy wants 6K This seems like a no brainer to buy as i have ability to do all the work myself and my uncle is a body guy but i don't want any crazy surprises.
I want to finish the car right. Im 6'2 and have always wanted a cobra. This seems like the only one i would fit in comfortably

Thanks in advance for your help. Probably haven't had a green horn this site in a while.
