Well first you get a Crown Vic. Then you sell it and use the money to buy a Cobra. Boom.

Yes. There are many people on CC with answers.
I suspect you're looking for more than that, but your question is cryptic and general in nature. Suggestions: - Be specific with your questions, IOW, exactly what do you want to know.
- Be clear about how you phrase your questions.
In order to get this started, there are no kits that will convert a Crown Vic (of any year) into a Cobra. Having said that, there are some components which may be usable in a Cobra, but very few. The engine, probably, and transmission if your plan is to go with an automatic transmission. The rear axle & differential are quite possible, though a lot depends upon the kit you're using and the year of the Crown Vic.
Factory Five Racing uses the 'donor' model as one of way of building a replica, but their donors are Mustangs - of specific years. You might start by downloading a copy of the FFR Assembly Manual and going through it - all 473 pages.

Crown to Cobra
Google G Force Cobras west Australia. I have herd their bodies are so good out of the mold that they don't need tainting just polish the gel coat.

Tainting? I dunno. Might be fun to do it anyway. Some parts of the world it's considered illegal though.  |

Crown Vic to Cobra
Sorry spelling mistake. But G Force is a crown based kit.

Is that based off a North American Crown Victoria and, if so, which generation / years? FWIW, I looked at the G Force site and see no references to use of donor cars, especially a NA Crown Victoria (commonly used as taxis and police cars).
