I build my Lone Star in 2000-2001. Hurricane has been in business a little over a year. There are a few things I like about the LS and a lot of things about the Hurricane I like. I like LS cockpit and trunk tubs are molded to the body. This makes it harder for water and air to get into these areas. I like the 94" wheel base with the 4" in the interior. My doors are 4" longer. Easier to get in and out. The LS body may be heavier. But I think the cars weight about the same. Not importance unless your racing. Mike bought all the upgrades for the suspension, brakes and rear end. CHEAP I think Mike spent less time building his Cobra and he had help and answers at the end of his cell phone, a lot of calls where made late at night. I had no help from LONE STAR and a lot of design problems. I had to get other people to help me solve them. For the money and customer service, Hurricane, hands down. Check out my gallery for pictures of both. I have over a thousand hours and a lot of money in my Cobra. I'm very happy with my Cobra, but would not buy another one from LONE STAR.
