1/4 AC Cobra body and halibrand rims and tyres

Post by mickieb49 »

Just seeing on what interest is out there for a AC Cobra body and Halibrand rims and tyres .
I ordered this 6 months ago from Paul Smallenburg , he still physically has them , because I need the funds now, I can't go ahead to pay postage. So buyer would in fact pay paul direct and organise shipping thru him.
I'm only trying to recoup some of my investment.
Asking €750.


He also has the daytona body for sale too.

I would be interested in the daytona body with wheels and tires. Can you let me know if that's an option and how much? Thank you

Brendon,
Because I don't own the Daytona, I cant vouch for that, it would be something you would have to talk thru with Paul, to me I cant see a problem but as I said, because its not mine I cant say.

Okay, so you ordered this body but you can't pay the shipping. You paid Paul for this body partial, so why can't Paul just refund the money? How much of the 850.00 did you pay or how much is this body anyway? Does the buyer pay the difference you owe Paul? You are not clear on the details here or I just can't read between the lines?

Emilio,
I paid mote than the $850 usd for the body and wheels, and don't owe paul anything on them, just haven't paid shipping.
But now am sorting out shipping , so once I get them I will revise the price accordingly. This I hope will avoid any further confusion.

Thank you Mick, I'm confident once you get this in your hands and update the photos you will have a lot of people knocking on the door for the opportunity.

Hi Guys,
Well it has been a long winded exercise, but apparently the body and wheels is now on its way to me.
Now rather than sell the whole lot, I have decided to create a mold and sell the bodies on, This is off course with Pauls blessing and a percentage will go back to him.
Thankyou all , and will advise in a thread when they will be available.
Regards Mick

Why does a percentage go to him? He did not create the original! He copied off the original. Actually he owed the creator of the coupe a body as permission to replicate and that never happened...

Conley used those bodies. A guy named Jackie made the plug and molds for Gary. Gary then had someone else pull bodies for him I believe. But Gary is the person that paid for the molds to originally be created.
