I always wanted one of those cobra kits but I always figured by the time I got done putting it together I'd be so broke I couldn't afford to drive it. You gonna put in a big block??

Yes, this is what the mustang parts are for. It's a Factory Five Roadster. I'm building it with a friend of mine. Actually I'm building it and he's paying for it. It will be driven.

No, but it will have a carbed 351W that ran 11.70's in a maverick that was 1,000 lbs heavier than this car will be. :D

That's the great part about this, I get to build it and it isn't costing me any $$, except for tools. I let my buddy decide all the extras, he went $5,000 over the base kit price with options. That's good for me because that means more new parts and less parts I have to clean. We're pretty much using as many new parts as we can since we quickly went past a budget build. At this point I'm guessing about $27,000 when all is said and done. The only used/rebuilt parts will be the spindles, trans, rear end, pedals and a few other odds and ends.
