Shelby Daytona Cobra Coupe Revamp

[Jeremy Jon]

As the lower control arms are reattached, they are made visually correct, removing the donor kits extra bars (as shown), and mounting tabs constructed & attached to rails

Rear suspension tower modified & used

Renovated chassis shown compared to donor (unmodified) body, and difference in dimension (length)

More renovations to accuracy of chassis & suspension, the enclosed rear lower control arms, out board LCA mounts & front subframe base plate

Surely following this one... cant wait whats is coming

[Jeremy Jon]

Thanks Henry, yes much more yet on this project

[Jeremy Jon]

Given the basic tower and lack of detail from donor kit, started constructing a multi piece front suspension tower to replace, with accurate dimension and detailing

Multi layer spring assembly constructed, and most of new tower built, including correct off-set shock mount arms, more detailing needed yet

This makes my project look like a 3 year old's attempt at modeling. Fascinating stuff, Jeremy.

Kool stuff Jeremy!!!!

[Jeremy Jon]

Thanks Kerry & Pat

Tower completed, and lateral spring with upper spindle portions (steerable hubs to fit into), and separated shocks will allow to be separately painted during build

Comparison to photo of tower + spring assembly

More small parts being ready for molds
