This is my first time to the forum, but certainly not my last. I've always dreamed of building a Cobra and was planning on pulling the trigger next fall and buying a kit. I've never built a car before, but consider myself very handy and resourceful (I'm sure you've heard that one before). I'm determined to do this and know it will take a while. I've been building my tool collection and have been researching it for a couple of years.
My wife has given me the green light, so the biggest hurdle is out of the way.
My first question is: Am I crazy to do this???? I plan on going to Michigan next year for the build school as a starter.
My second question/dilemma: I'm 6'4". I sat in a MK4 roadster and realized I may have a big problem with my dream car, me!! My legs are too long. I could barely get my left foot off the clutch because my knee kept hitting the dashboard. The seat was all the way back, so there's no relief there. A friend of mine told me an operation to cut off a couple of inches on both legs would be too expensive, but never say never. I am determined to do this.
Any and all advice is appreciated
