I am hoping to start the motor in about a months time. I used a tube bender on the brake and fuel line which helps give them a more professional look, but there was a bit frustration getting them to look like that.
Whats makes it quick to build is that when you move the parts from the falcon over to the chassis everything line up. There is virtually no guess work involved when putting the parts together. Using the complete falcon wiring harness cuts the wiring of the car down to couple of days.

Stiffy,
I think it is about time that these sort of kits become available here. The ease of constructon and good build manuals, I think, helps the finished product get away from the back yard look

Albanycobra,
The alloy chassis is great to work with. Driiling ,filing or thread tapping no problems at all and looks good as well.
It would make a great daily driver as it would have a simular feel to a falcon to drive, but with smaller turning circle and a few hundred kilos lighter. It will have all of the falcon mod cons as well a hardtop(which will be made to look like a soft top) and electric windows

Stephan,
I used a BF XR8 for a doner car and the only difference was the the ABS motor and P/S cooler. If I couldn't find a 6 speed manual I was going to get a 6 speed auto. The autos, as you would expect, are lot more plentiful.
The tappet covers have the standard clearence you would expect in any cobra build, the width of your fingers. To remove that tappet covers the motor has to come out. Other than the tappet covers evething else around the motor is accessable.

Just as a matter of interest DRB Sportcars will now be the manufacturer of the SC 540
