Partially complete Classics Roadster Cobra
Ok guys, I am new to the site and to the world of Cobras. My wife's dream car is a Cobra, and we have been talking about building one for years. Recently, my dad and brother found a partially complete Classics Roadster Cobra at a swap meet for a reasonable price. The guy says that it is stage 1 & 2 of the kit (but no stage 3). It has the full rolling chassis, including upgraded tubular a-arms, and the full body &wiring harness. No interior, lights, etc.
Since Classic is no longer in business, are there any parts from the stage 3 kit that I will NOT be able to source from other suppliers? This is my first kit car, but I have plenty of experience with other car projects. I am not worried about getting in over my head with technical items, but I don't want to get into a situation where I can't find the necessary parts to finish the car. In general, Classic Roadster cars seem to have a good reputation. Is there anything to be weary of with this buy? Thanks for the advice... |
Looking at my components brochure, it looks like almost everything can be had from other sources.
I do know of a guy that had a dash. I can check with him and see if he still has it. The kick panel covers you might have to make. Should not be that hard. All they do is cover the cowl bar. There is a source for the license plate bracket and light assembly. There is also a source for the complete headlight assembly. Everything else you can find without looking too hard. Headlight info: Headlight for a CR is from SLC Lighting International - 1-800-938-0120. It is (K-D Lamp) part number 499-102318I for $74.35.. That includes the bucket, chrome bezel, 24" wire and a 6015 headlight. License plate info. Yankee 331/332 SAE-L-70 http://www.vintagetrailersupply.com/..._p/vts-145.htm Yes it is from a trailer. You just have to turn the bracket around I think. |
you can check with Finisn Line in Florida for the lights....

SGR,
ALL OF PHASE THREE can be had openly. The main components were interior, lights etc. DV |
Google "FFR discussion forum" it's the "factory Five" forum and you'll see a lot of vendors for those parts,I bought a lot of stuff from these guys and they are pretty good and knowledgeable and I'm from Canada.
