When I built the Cobra that I used to race I had billet steel plates molded into both doors that were the size of the door. I also had a 3" roll bar that went all the way across the car and was anchored in four places to the frame. But even with that, the windshield was still a very fragile and weak point so I figured that if I ever rolled the car that would be the first part to go. Nothing can make any car completely safe and Cobras are near if not at the bottom of the list.
I have a Daytona Coupe now with a full and braced roll cage which met the track standards plus it is padded in all areas around the driving area.Ron
