Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Hersh,

No worries, I'd just hate for a prospective buyer to fall for what was said about the company in the distant (like the thread from 03-02-2004) past as being current, when in fact, it is a ten year old, highly outdated thread. I'll stand by my original thread that even if the OP is just an interested buyer without any connection to the Ebay seller, he is still in for years of hunting for parts that will work with what is listed in the auction, and that he will have $40,000-$60,000 invested in the finished product (with a retail value of $34,000-$38,000 if he is lucky).


Having been around these Cobra kits since 1979, I've seen a lot of good people fall into these "great, once in a lifetime" deals, only to lose their minds, and their hard earned money trying to resurrect incomplete kits, by defunct companies. I personally cannot see allowing that to happen to a fellow enthusiast, not ever. Hence my cynical side

Bill S.
