Cobra to buy

thechronic23 · #1 (**permalink**) 10-02-2003, 04:17 PM

I'm interested in acquiring a Cobra from someone who wanted a project and doesn't want to finsih it. I'm a student and i don't have much cash but I'm willing to work something out.

Thank you

There is a guy with a thread started on this very page who is looking for someone who would want to complete the Cobra Project he started. Check it out

chronic23,
The unfinished car you select may not be the easiest or best buy, if you have to fabricate or scrounge parts from wrecking yards to complete it.
If you cannot take the COBRA replica/kit you buy and order the balance of the parts via UPS to complete it from other sources other than that manufacturer, you may not want it.
Take your time and enjoy your build, and not have to resale it as an unfinished car.

listen to Grumpy

I am not telling you all unfinished kits are a bad deal I think you should just be causious and call the manufacturer of the kit and see what parts are and are not available directly from them.

Take your time, do some homework and pick the one you want because it is the one you want, NOT the first one you see for sale.

Sounds like this guy may have an incomplete kit for sale. A and C, a great kit too!
