I am so excited! I can not stop thinking about this Cobra.

This has being the most interesting car purchasing experience of my life. I have purchased numerous Mustangs but never in this manner. I decided to buy a car without even looking at pics of the car. I missed the opportunity of buying two of Joe's cars in the past. Both times he was very patient in listening and responding to all my questions. This time I made the decision of purchasing one of his builds. Joe keeps me updated on the progress of the car as each step gets conconcluded. I am so impressed by joe's attention to details. He is going over this entire car in order to make sure I am satisfied. Joe has also contacted me in regards of how I would like things from this point on.....WHO DOES THAT? I highly suggest if you have the chance to buy one of his cars you do it!!!!!!!! I CAN NOT WAIT TO HEAR, SEE AND DRIVE MY DREAM COBRA!

Thanks Joe for doing such amazing work!

Congrats! :banana:
I had no idea that an individual like this existed. I'm hoping that I'm in line to possibly pick up something that he builds. Hell, as bad ass as all of his builds sound I could really care less what it is. :lol1:

Do it man! I did not even think twice once he announced this one. I sold my 03 cobra within 24 hours of this thread in order to have all the funds ready. The next car he announces just do what I did.....Buy it..lol He does not play games with the buyer. He sets a very fair price and waits for the first person who appreciates a quality build.

I certainly appreciate the kind words. That makes me very humble. As far as my next project, I'm looking for the right car as we speak. I hope to crank out one a month. They'll all be of the same caliber

I am thinking more on the lines of three to four cars, you can't determine how long the aftermarket parts will take. One a month is going to be really tough unless you have all the parts available already

In all honesty that's pretty much it. I have a close friend that owns a fairly high end dealership that helps me track down most of the cars. Ive also found a couple on the boards that people need to unload fast for any number of reasons. Parts are the same. I've bought so many items from a lot of the bigger name online retailers that a lot of them know me by name and give me great deals because they can expect that I'll be back often. Beyond that info guys I'd really prefer not to get too much into the finances aspect. It starts to become a little too personal to share on a public forum. Not trying to be rude so please don't take it that way. The fact remains that I'm not doing this to turn huge profits. If that was the aim I wouldn't invest the time and funds I do into each ride. I have over the past couple months been considering opening a small lot with maybe 3-5 cars at a time dealing with nothing but mustangs, vettes, older vipers etc. I'd essentially do what I'm doing now as far as buying, customizing and selling just on a slightly grander scale then I've been doing on my own for the past couple years. If I did I would certainly continue to cater to SVTP guys first and foremost.

the hood for this project arrived today. Stunning is the only word that comes to mind! I went with carbon fiber for the subtle yet very high end contrast against the DSG. I don't like "in your face" appearence mods. I like when it sneaks up on you and then blows you away the closer you get

^^^ thanks bro. I've used that combo before and loved it. Here's a quick pic of the last DSG project I did (and sold on here). For that one I went with an 03 cobra style CF hood and left the areas behind the vents exposed CF.

While I'm at it here's just a quick glimpse at my most recently sold projects

Wow! That DSG you sold (not the one your currently building) looked evil! Amazing work man! Hope I can be lucky enough to buy a car from you as well!
