It's easy to comment on all of the things that should have been done.....
My concern is that many folks build these vehicles without proper knowledge of Safety, or Protection with these type of Cars. They thing they can just put a kit of some sort together and then the have a car they can act like a kid again. It does bring back memories of driving a fast car....But it must be Safely accompolished in the build process.... everything on a car has to be thought out why and how it is being used....and is it strong enough to handle the situation it will be put in. Below shows you what a Cobra Frame looks like.



Very weak and hardly nothing to reinforce the or protect the occupants in the vehicle.



This is why many people are hurt in any mishap with a Cobra.
Their is just no protection for the occupants.
