David,

Did you set the car up so that you could fit in it?

> My brother may be interested in it and he's a tad shorter than you at only 6'4" has a 36" inseam with size 15 feet.
> His current ride is the car in the link below, but he still longs for a Cobra, specifically a Factory Five.

...https://gm-efi.com/features/feature-cars/pontiac/car-feature-skunkworks-mecham/

> I know he'd ditch the T/A if he could fit in mine, but I didn't make the required mods to the car since I'm 5'10".
> My son wants the T/A when his uncle decides to sell it so a little Hot Rod Swapping may be possible.

Please Advise & Thanks!

Steve,

Yes, car car is set up so I can drive it. It's a big boy build.

If I can drive it, so can he.

[GoDadGo]

I'm sending him the link.
..Thanks-O-Million!

David,

I had a chance to talk to my brother last night and he said the workmanship was amazing, but he's no longer interested in the prospect of owning a Cobra.
He said he sees me picking my driving days by my avoidance of inclement weather, specifically rain, and doesn't want t join the club.
Ironically he's 100% correct because I rode my bike (Mean Streak 1600 Cruiser) far more than I have ever driven my car.
Anyway, I wanted to give you an update regarding his interest or lack thereof in your brother's Factory-5 MK-4.
Personally, I think you guys also consider listing the car on Bring-A-Trailer in addition to Facebook.

Bump TTT. Still for sale. This roadster comes with a choice in seats, and I will mount the original - still in box - leather seats on tracks if you so require.
