Iam in the progress of building my cobra, but before i start assembeling everything, can anyone help telling me is there any instructions, books, dvd's out there that you could recomend so i can make this project any shorter by working out what is the best step by step way to go about it. Thanks everyone for reading.

i really wish there was a DVD, but I looked everywhere and good not find one. We had a show here in the states on DIY channel (do it yourself) but after repeatedly trying they would not send my a copy and have not re-aired in a long time..I am sure there are a lot of good books.

if you find any video, please let me know.

regardless of the frame/body you buy, invest in the ERA Replica Manual. You will find it is money well spent. Includes much info on the Cobra build.

There's a book that keeps showing up on E-bay with the various suspension set ups etc for building Cobra kits. My advice is stick with someone elses geometry with sub assembly type construction. We build hot rods literally around the wheels much like the stories of the original AC Cobra. Read lots about it here and other web sites. Some manufacturers have build schools (videos etc) for their product. Good luck.

There is a DVD on a Cobra Build called "a car is born".
Here is a link from the place I bought it from.

Although it is Ford Sierra based and is a Pilgrim Sumo, I did find it helpful to watch a few times before I started my build.
