Why??

So that's what it would look like!

I'm told there's a Cobra body in our area w/o a frame - I could pick up an old Jeep or Exploder Sport, take a few inches out of the wheelbase and voila, Cobra 4x4. The really twisted part of this is it would probably be easier to get safety approval on that than it did for my freshly imported, but previously owned, West Coast Cobra. Not that I'm bitter about that experience or anything.

While the primary reason I went looking for a West Coast built Cobra was the longer wheelbase and (slightly) increased legroom, the more robust frame (Cobra Chassis Information) was also something that appealed to me. I'm certainly not looking for a collision, but the additional structural members in these cars is certainly some comfort should such an unwanted event occur. The downside, of course, is a car that weighs significantly more than many other Cobras, but that's something I am quite prepared to accept.

My Cobra and others alike is the closest thing to a full fledged race car with plates, able to, and looks comfortable at the Drag Strip, an Autocross, a Road Course, and makes people old and young wave and point. It is pure and simple an adrenaline release. Is that for you... It is for many of us, and it is for me. I like working on my car and taking pride in doing so. My only worry is getting too old for it all...
