Just because something can be done- doesn't mean it should. The proportions of the cars are too different and although Chris/Dan's skills will make it fit, it will never look right.
Suggest you extra sweet-talk herself and buy the red demonstrator.
The red one has gone and no way I can get another 2 seater convertible past the boss.
It is a little bit of narrowing to compensate for no door skins. The back ends of the two cars were about the same length so proportions not that different.
I agree that is may turn out like the result of a bad car crash in a Tribute showroom but I had the same worries when getting the Z300S made and that turned out okay.
Just ordered some coilovers to drop the front on mine a bit. Pictures of the fitting and blood at the weekend probably.
I wonder if Chris and Dan have considered using different ends of two their two kits to produce two new models. because the Kobra and Z300S don't have grp doors skins it would be an easy job to create a Zobra variant with a Z300S front and the Kobra rear or vice versa. Anybody fancy a go at photoshop?
What you going for, cobra front ? Should look interesting,and another reason why choosing black paint was a good idea.
I waved at you and shouted on Saturday I think it was I was just stepping out of motor home as you drove past in the z300. Ed.
Ian, you have to trust me on this. If I had described the Z300S before it was built you would have said it would never work.
You saw it and you bought it.
My only real ability in life is to envisage things others cannot.
Having said that, I do occasionally get it wrong. The anchovies and Stilton sandwich I had last night after nine Duvals was not improved by adding caper berries.
