Here's my chassis I splashed off of the conley version, a bit tricky but not to hard.

Oh sorry. Here's my jig for the cobra chassis that I traced off the original, I can lay any type of tubing on this and then build up the detailed parts, like bulkheads and cabin area, all in tubing.

If I can get the cobra body, I could start any time. Looking to do something like this more or less.

Hey folks, here is the cobra pretty much in the final stage, just finished up the fuel tank, filler tube and fuel cap. Working on the side pipes for the moment which looks to be a little challenging, but I have some ideas. Need to make lower front floor pan to mount the steering servos then onto the brakes. Hope you enjoy :)
