Default Contemporary Parts wanted

Gentlemen;I am looking for Doors,Trunk, inner cockpit parts.... A whole body , any bits and pieces for the Contemporary Cobra. Slowly I should be able to piece a complete body together ...that is - after I Knit the main portion... LOL. I have had a few Kind people point me in the usual directions, But I have to think that way back when the Contemporary Cobra was widely used in racing that some of the race teams must have purchased extra bodies and so-forth.I would like to contact some of these people so if any of you Kind Folk out there know who I should contact...Please forward this request on to them. I appreciate all the help you give me....This project Contemporary Cobra I am building is my First and I would like to use as many origional parts as I can. Thankyou again and take care!...Mike.S (SCHULZ.MR@FORCES.GC.CA )

You've probably already heard this, but FFR owns the Contemporary molds and offers bodies, but without the tub I believe.
If you keep your eyes open and check the likely places - ebay, Cobra and collectors club classifieds, etc... you'll eventually end up with one.
I know a guy in town who has an absolute gem of a Contemporary that had the front end damaged by a motorcycle rider. Trashed the front end. According to him (he's and old friend of Carrol Shelby), they put it in the Shelby mold and repaired it. I saw the before and after pics and it is amazing it is the same car. Most solid feeling Cobra I've ever seen or felt.
