FIA Cobra - Hand rolled body on T-Leaf Frame
Wanted to throw in a plug for my friend Joe at Panel Craft. He is currently making a transverse leaf ally bodied FIA Cobra. The body is a work of art, hand rolled and not a pressed panel like some others. This car is a bute and with the original buggy spring type suspension a keeper. Joe has made some panels for my comp build and they are fabulous. A great car made by a craftsman = FANTASTIC

Looks good.
The one thing that bothers me is that it will have the incorrect Brian Angliss style oil cooler opening. It seems that nobody makes an FIA body with that detail correct. |

Back end is on getting metal finished
Front end is going on now and looking real purdy.
It's getting unveiled in Atlantic City mid Feb. You saw it here first.
Jeff, T-leaf, I like that it sounds very English.......... |
