SVT Cobra Funny Car

Hey, I just started this build as a side project to pass the time untill I finished up my CRX project, but I've really been getting into this one too, so I've decided to make a thread and show people the progress on this one too.

SVT Mustang Cobra
Planned modifications:
Custom drag chassis
Supercharged V8
Custom Carbon Fibre Funny Car Blower
Drag Slicks and Runners
Custom Carbon Fibre Drag Wing
Full Body Hinged (Going to open as a whole)
Custom Interior
Custom Carbon Fibre Seat (w/ racing harness)
Custom Rollcage (8-12pt)
Custom Fuel Cell
N20
Custom Carbon Fibre Dash
And most likley just a bland sponsorless result. :D

Here's a quick photo, I'll take more after work.

what he said.

Between this and your CRX, I should get enough motivation to try my hand at this.

Where's the roof?

Thats looking really good. Did this car start as a convertable?

Yeah, and I'm making a hardtop and shaving it onto the body w/ custom windows.

Well, no new photos yet, but I started on the interior, and assembled most of the motor, now I'm working on the rollcage, and planning on painting today. (the interior)

looks sick so far!! kepp it up

you kept your promise that you would build one. I ll me wathching this i put mine on hold
because i couldnt find an idea for the roof

I'm in progress with the roof, I'm using aluminium sheet metal for mine.

You have a lot of projects up to date but they are all looking great!

that aint a funny car, funny cars have a full tube chassis, no custom interior, a aluminum seat, with some padding and a seatbelt, motor is to far forward, bodi is to high, if anything thats likes a pro-mod car

+funny car bodies dont have the same proportions as stock cars

did you finish with the crx conversion because you usally dont post pictures of the models you made.

Pro-Stock, that's the word I was looking for, thanks. :D
And yes, I'm still working on the CRX, but it's all just real minor things so I'll take photos soon.

ok pro stock is a little more like it, + 97_sho is correct, funny car bodys are more sleek and have a lower appearance

thank you+i do like the way this model is going

Serious progress on this beast too, I'll post photos when I get my CRX photos up. :D

Here they are, beautiful updates.
Ok here it goes, I added a small base cage, windshield, (roof in progress), pretty much the whole interior is scratch built, and it's very very tubbed.. I love it.
