The Cobra project started at 1998 and took some 3 years to complete. It's a straight forward design I used common readily available parts from Jaguar, Mercedes, Chevy, Saab and Volvo. Which creates a strong and powerful car, not to expensive.
It gives a fantastic driving sensation, like a
overgrown go-cart, I treat it as my 4 wheeled
motorcycle. (no roof, if it rains you get wet)
Weighting only 1100 kg with 400hp it does 0-60mph on 5 sec (0-100kmh)
Its equipped with a 4 speed super T10/Munchie manual gearbox, Instruments from Classic instruments Boyd's series. 15" split rim wheels Hallibrand style. Tyres front with 245 and rear with 295.
