<VV> Cobra kit cars - Non Corvair

[Borrrris at aol.com]

Forgive the un-aircooled related post, but thought some here may  have 
valuable input on this.
My bro-in-law visiting from Spring Hill, FL tells me he is really  
considering building a Cobra kit car and showed me brochures from several mfgrs.  The 
more he researches , the more questions he has, but knows no-one who has  "been 
there-done that" to ask.
Anybody here have any input, advice, opinions, or even second  hand stories 
to share?
 
Direct responses to my email probably a good idea.
Thanks
  Matt from L.I. ('66 Monza coupe  110/PG)
