Maybe you should compliment it with something that looks equally as cool on a cobra as halibrands, but are not halibrands, make them spline drive knock-offs with lots of open space to see that chassis. Then if you use the billet chassis and big wheels you need to add stack injection to give it that retro look.

We can't go with a transaxle because there is simply no room to do so. The area in the cockpit is extremely tight. We will be using a wheel that looks like the original Cobra--but we will be making them ourselves. We want the car to "look" right.
