Default Seeking mechanic to inspect Cobra for sale in western Connecticut

I am looking for a mechanic familiar with Cobra replicas, interested in inspecting a used Cobra for sale in Western Connecticut. If anyone has experience with someone they can recommend, I would appreciate a reference.

Doing a PPI on a Cobra replica is always recommended, however, knowing what you are looking at is just as important. Who's kit is it?

Dont make the mistake I made!!! Have it inspected by someone who is familiar with the kit car mfg. There is a company in Wallinford Ct.called Cobra Automotive. I actually stopped down to see them on Weds. They have an unbelievable shop. Shop rate was not bad @ $85.00 an hour. Especially for a specialty shop. Good luck.

My apologies, Bill: I am showing my newbie stripes. This is a Superformance, 8 years old, Roush 402, Tremec TKO 500. Raoul, thanks for the word - I will check out Cobra Automotive.

I'm familiar with the breed and have done a few PPI's. I am a few hours away if Cobra Automotive can't help.
