just a body kit lol.. says the guy that doesnt own one..ha.
Im sure what he meant is that getting a "real" Cobra vs getting a V6 and swapping everything ends up being the same damn thing in the end.

and yes,get over yourself.

no i dont currently own a cobra either...I have in the past.

good job op.

Only true hot-rodders have the balls to pull off what you did. I admire the work you did and you did an excellent job also. I especially enjoyed your fabbed the Passenger IRS subframe bracket. Most guys are just bolt on and go types and will NEVER really understand the kind of work it takes to build a car.

Thanks man. I grew up around building hot rods. Gramps built $70k stuff lol. Ford no longer makes that braket so it was cool to fab it. Thanks for the love.

Body kit, built supercharged motor, T56, IRS, brembo brakes, wider rims, better tires, suspension, and seats...... Lol but mustang with a body kit pretty much sums it up :dw:

But I do agree who cares if it didn't start life as cobra or is an exact clone. The teal "terminator" and the BAB "terminator" are my 2 favourite cars on this site lol. Op good job on the swap.

Yes mustang with body kit does sum it up. It is based on a mustang chassis it isnt anything special that people need to get so bent out of shape over.

Nice looking car and a hell of a job getting it done.

I say to those who complain about him having the emblems on a non Cobra, it is the full drivetrain, I would imagine he does not tell people it is a real Cobra, it is as close to the real thing as you can get without buying the real thing, and isn't imitation the sincerest form of flattery?
