My understanding was you can buy them in various stages of build from pieces in a box too turn key ready. A next door neighbor of a friend of mine has a Cobra Jet. He is a retired pilot and loves cars. He put a balanced engine up front and it is a monster. Took me for a spin in it and it is wicked fast. I can hardly sit in it though . The cross member for the dash is too low (I had to sit lock legged or cross legged and the top of windshield is to low (I'm 6'4") so it was not a very comfortable ride. Another dream crushed. The car was wicked fast and got lots of attention. The sound out of the side pipes was just evil Maybe when I get rich I can have one custom built for my frame .... yea .. that's the ticket .. yea..........
