Nice picture of the Cobra, it  looks good by the barn....watch out for ants in the grass!


Very Cool, Bill

Looks fantastic,  ready to go burn up some highway.

How about some more pictures, engine , interior and any custom thing you've done.


Bill

Nice job,  love to see a great looking Hurricane Cobra, especially the happy faces in the cockpit.
Now the real fun begins.... Enjoy.

The very best to you, Bill

Well, congrats to Don Wolf for winning the "Beast from Lake City", I know he is feeling the thrill and very excited.   

I wish it could have been me,  but what the heck it was for a great cause.. Congrats again.

[the Hurricane will be mine]

Okay, the Hurricane will be mine, two Hurricanes in the garage will be perfect, I guess the truck goes outside...On second thought, no the truck will stay inside, my wife's Jeep goes outside.

Am I optimistic or what ..I bought a ticket to ride.

That blue is really perfect.

Very nice job Mark, I enjoyed looking at all your pictures and observed the high degree of quality you put into the car.  Your build is very clean and straight forward, I think your pictures could easily be in the Hurricane Manual for future builders.   

Best of luck, can'tr wait to see the finished product.

Bill

Wow!  I agree the new bodies look absolutely great.   This is a real plus for the builder, much less body work and better fit.

Good job, Guys

ps.  I wish I had new bodies, one for my Cobra and one for me.   

Bill

Congrats Dave,  looks like your welll on your way to making your Hurricane the truly Beautiful Beast that is, best wishes on your build.   
As stated by the other boys, don't hesitate to ask questions or show off your progress , we love to offer up any help or suggestions when you ask . In addition, the Hurricane family will become good friends and welcome you into the loop.

[Fuzz, You are our Hero !]

Fuzz, You are our Hero !   Your continued hard work, perseverance, and skill, make all the Hurricane owner/ builders proud.  To think, building a right hand drive (one of a kind) Hurricane cobra in a foreign country with all the problems involved is a great accomplishment. 

Well done my friend, looking forward to seeing it on the road with your smiling face grinning at us.
Good Luck, Bill   

Hey Steve, it would be nice to see an Ad on Club Cobra side bar, kind of like the old Hurricane advertiserment.  The ad is what brought Hurricane to my attention while doing my research for the best kit cobra around.  I understand that "times are tough right now and advertisement is expensive", but getting the word out there and catching the future builder is the key to success.  It's kind of like "fly paper",  the information sticks with you while shopping.
Only a suggestion, good luck, Bill   

WOW!

The car looks terrific.....wish I could be at the show. Post pictures soon.
Bill      

Very Nice, it's looking great.   

Question:  Are you guys coming up with a better (more standard) method and procedure for installing the door sills?

This portion of the build is sort of "vague" and leaves it up to each builder to come up with their own solution. 
It seems to me that 1)  improved manual instructions, 2) and  specific sill material in the kit will standardize the door sills and look more consistent for alll future Hurricanes.

There have been many excellent examples of sill construction on this site, perhaps one of those might be a good standard method.
Bill

Very nice!   Style and finish quality is a great improvement.   8-)

I agree, Hurricane needs to post some action / progress pictures for us groupie's to drool over.   

Hi all!  Still "driving the heck" out of my Hurricane, pushing 17000 miles no problems.  Going on a 300 mile Club trip this coming weekend to Boulder, Nevada.  Could drive my (new) 56 ford pickup, but the Cobra is way too much fun and gets too many looks to leave it home. Anyway, great little machine and still looks as good as new.
Happy Camper..Bill
