| Re: History of all Viper models re yr observation on builds. I agree there ARE cobra kits that are maybe quicker to put together. Those that are are not as technically advanced as the Viper models are. On all the Viper models the rolling chassis work is dead simple. What does take more effort and technical ability is the putting on of the bodies and fitting of doors. However when done by someone with ablilty, if done properly the end result is a cobra superior in
in strength in relation to how the body is fitted to the chassis. Giving a stiffer car with NO RATTLES AND SQUEEKS you get from some other makes. Also results in avastly superior and strogly made car as opposed to some others.
I do have 40 odd years of experience in fibreglass including many years building power boats and including racing power boats. and the way my body fits to the chassis reflects that. No other Cobra has a body to chassis fitment the same as mine does. So you could say that some builders will struggle technically. As for fitting out, the rest of the car the Viper is no different than any other Cobra. |
