To an extent it depends on how hard you want to try and fit the donor items. For example a fellow near me building his 2nd GForce bought an SS ute VY I think, and managed to fit the fuel tank, still half full of fuel too.

He also remodelled the heater outer body with thin walled aluminium, as knowing these cars need a good demisting system. This downsized the box and he fitted it into the passenger footwell. And if you turn his heater on full it just about blows you out of the cabin.

Getting a ute better matches the balance of a cobra so if you use the brake system you are more likely to get better bias. And if you buy a wreck don't get rid of anything you half think might fit until you have properly discounted the part from use in the cobra.

If I was to build again I would buy a whole wreck, it's amazing what parts can be transfered over.

You'll find the RMC and GForce very similar, one is an effective clone of the other, either as a local option would be ok.

Good luck.
