Jeez and you were giving me stick about running a Chev!!!

Seriously though it looks good. some blue XC Cobra style stripes on the white would look cool too.

Cheers

Hey Pete I thought it was a pain cutting holes in a piece of aluminium to put my gauges in.



Looks good though.

Cheers

Hi JS,

Thanks for your interest.

No Build Site - sorry.

Intend updating my gallery in the near future with pics of the build process.

Basically the car is a DRB 2000, which is manufactured throughout Australia by appointed Agents. Its probably the most popular Cobra manufacturer over here - not necessarily the best.

From the outside, the car looks pretty much authentic. However inside it takes on a different guise including:

Preformed dash with "modern" instrumentation; custom seating (mine are from a Honda Prelude); Jag suspension front and back; and 302 EFI (Ford Fairlane).

What I like about the car is that as it doesn't quite follow the traditional look it enables me to be somewhat more creative with add ons etc.

Bernie:

Took me ages too - 5 minutes I think
