It will be Black On Black with white stripes and red rookies stripes as well roundels. will have 15" wheels and all the rest fo the new stuff, the car will act as sort of a development and test car for any new products for the street.
Am looking forward to the day when i see the car start taking shape.

So can you elaborate on any of the new stuff that they might be applying to your new car?

Welcome to the Cobra experience. Be prepared to give all the teenage boys in the neighborhood rides. I have even had some mom call me to give their sons rides. all cool though , any reason to go for a ride is good.

Guys, thanks for the welcomes........BUT......I already Own a Cobra......in fact it's a sister car to the BDR..The performance Cars venom....in fact the very last car out of that factory(in fact the car was destined for the factory owner)....
True 007 I cannot elaborate on the parts yet as there are so many new things coming from Tony at the factory and which he is still developing, let me just say that as soon as I know I will post them here, and let the rest of you in on it, We have agreed that I would use My new car as a test-bed or guinea pig car for the Factory.The Car will look exactly the same as the Intro pic on the Hurricane website though.
Jay....heheheh yeah, thanks and sorry for having circumvented the dealer network..........but I think I saved a heap in gas money by not coming to you and going directly to Tony at the factory.......he is only about 20 miles from my house here in Durban SA........
Cant wait for this baby to be built..............Pics will follow as and when I get to take them.

PS: erm erm erm erm........... I guess i may have to alter my signature line ...........I also bought a 56 CHev apache Truck to be hot rodded for a tow vehicle......

I am putting an Engine factory, SBF stroker 347 with some add ons to make about 510HP, mated to a tremec uprated T5 5 spd tranny.........into this baby.

I saw her today at the factory , ready to get her polish.............If you thought she has a shine in the previous pics...............WOW now she will be dazzling.
The paint guy at the Factory really gets it right.
I cant wait top get this baby on the road............there are some Subaru STI and BMW M3, Not ot mention the odd ladies car (911) around here who are getting way to familiar on the streets lately.
hehehehhe
Cheers, will keep you guys updated.
