Wanna Be Cobra R

[nelzsvt]

Has anyone on here besides me built a wanna be Cobra R? Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

What’s your budget, and how close to perfect are you hoping for? And are you talking 95R, or 00R

Well... truth be told my car is a fox body with a 351w, 5spd, cobra irs, and brembos. So my car is an imitation of both cars in spirit. I ask because the Cobra R parts were mostly available and it could be done.

So did you actually built a Cobra R clone, or are you in the process of building one?

Take a new edge, put a 5.4, 6 speed, and IRS in it and have a ball! I think that's a great project. I personally would not try to make it "look" like an R. FWIW, that's my 2c, I'm just not a clone guy.

Haha! Mine isn’t even close to being a clone car! It’s the Daddywagon!
