Hi All,

I'm new to the forum, and am exploring beginning a Cobra project. I've identified the most important thing to me--building the car with my son--thus, buying pre-owned is unlikely. I have average mechanical ability, and no engineering background.

That said, I have a question I wanted to ask--is it possible (read plausible, without unnecessary fabrication, engineering, time, expense, etc.) to swap bodies between kits? For example, say I like the chassis and all other parts from Factory Five, but prefer the body of ERA. How difficult would it be to fit the ERA body on the FFR foundation? Will most bodies fit on most other manufacturers' chassis, or is the bolt-up pretty specific between body and chassis for each manufacturer? Besides body fitment, would other issues or problems arise, such as light, gauge, engine, transmission, exhaust, etc. fitment?

I've enjoyed reading all the info on this forum, and appreciate any input in advance.
