Hello all, just found this site and it looks real helpful, but can't seem to find any information about where i can get a 1/4 scale AC COBRA body? Does anyone have one they can sell me or know of one / supplier?
Any help is very much appreciated.

Mick: You just missed one on ebay yesterday, it went for the amazingly low price of $76 (I didn't buy it).

Thankyou, noticed on their website that they mention a full rolling chasis? but not costing for them ? was this a typo? (i assume it is) if memory serves me correctly, it looks exactly like Conley's picture and writeup ? ?
I am getting excited, not that i need the extra project but as we all say " I WANT IT"
Thankyou all
Is there anyone else out there building one of these 1/4 scale AC Cobra's? I would be interested in some pictures of the chasis, suspension and drivetrain ?

very, very nice car!!!! if someone was looking to purchase a car like that, what would they expect to pay for one, if they could find one?

that chassis was the first version of the cobra that gary built. That one specifically came from Wolfgang owner of Raco Europe. He sold it for $2000!!! Generally the newer version of the cars sell in the $7000-$15000 range.

Thankyou heaps all, this information helps me alot. Looks like i have about a few years worth of machining to do

I am still wondering if i could make the Singer 609 fit, i know the dimensions may be a little out but customising a chasis may help make it work???? Either that or i continue the 426HEMI build for this (this unfortunately is a little while off)
Again thankyou all.

These cars are certainly beautiful, pity they don't come up for sale very often, but i guess then they would not be worth as much. Well looks like i will have to build one from scratch...
