KidK9's 1997 Cobra Convertible Build

[Burninriverdiver]

Great work, this thing has come a long way already. It's nice to start with the cobra platform because you can actually put some money back in your pocket when you sell the body parts and engine, I practically had to pay someone to take my gt hood lol

True, man. Sometimes you can get a little money back. Although I don't know that it offsets the extra you pay for a cobra, since I'm basically junking most pieces. Maybe I should have started with a GT. Oh well, at least I didn't pick up a Saleen and then start working it.

Still working the ride height down.

Have you decided on the rear bumper yet? I think the matching cervini rear would look good.

Yeah that's what I'm doing, with side skirts.

What it in the hell happened here?

Brake caliper come off? Studs break off? What happened, and is everything/everyone alright?

I have no idea what happened. Found this wheel this way when taken off. Does that up the resale value of the rim? LoL

Broken ball joint and lower control arm gouged the wheel?

for a sec i thought that was a bonspeed wheel :sad5: lol.

 

[lwarrior1016]

^ That was my first thought too! That would have seriously sucked.

yea then i would have been pissed

 

[blackdemon007]

Definitely not a broken ball joint, not enough damage. Had that one happen before.

Looks more like a dust shield broke off and got stuck between the wheel and brakes.

Hypothetically, if you wanted a style bar...you'd have to trim those covers right?

I'll know soon enough. Style bar is in my garage in a box.

I can get some legit saleen covers but on top of paint I figured they needed to be trimmed, which was a double hell no.

Tha trap house.
