Great ride, you have any changes planed?
I’ve talked to Bob Bennett about the Excalibur Cobras recently. He improved the Classic Roadsters chassis by making the 2x4 main rails and the rear extensions one piece mandrill bent steel instead of cut and welded. The steel shop is still there and can make more. They are turnkey cars and are federal legal. The Classics have two cowl/footbox sizes, the big block being about a 12” wide footbox on both sides. The Excalibur were the smallblock with more foot room.
Like Classics the body’s are 9” longer, 2” wider and you sit 4” lower.
Bob built the first 10 cars and owns all the prints. There are photos of Excalibur chassis being built in jigs in the Bennett Coachworks website photos.
I told him I’m going to try and get Classic Roadsters from Ryan just to make fiberglass parts and he offered the chassis prints if I want to make them too.
The Classic Roadsters hard top should fit an Excalibur.
Camelot Classic Cars is Excalibur.

Party On
