    Mk II Roadster for Parts or Repair.

    Posting a sad story - looks like i will be selling my Mk II roadster for parts.

    Went to go take the car for its 'go cart' drive around the block after installing the fiberglass body. Shifted into drive, she lurched forward, the torque of the rear wheels overpowed the brakes and it slid on locked-out front wheels directly into my daily. Made it a grand total of 15 feet from its spot in the garage to the scene of the crime. My loss is your gain.

    It is a Mk II cobra with a crate 302 bored and stroked to 347, brand new Holley Sniper EFI, with a crate automatic transmission. everything on the car is brand new with 0 miles on it, perfect starter kit for someone who is looking to start a new cobra build, or is a candidate for someone who is comfortable doing the fiberglass repair to the body. The chassis and frame are undamaged, as the impact was at very low speed. Car is located in Portland, Oregon. Album with full photos below.

    Hoping to recoup at least some cost - asking 10k for the lot, including the car and all of the unused kit parts i have remaining (soft top, doors, hood, trunk lid, roll barse=, etc) Runs and drives, apparently stopping is the issue.

    I vote you don't give up and fix it!!!

    However if you choose not to this will sell today or tomorrow. If you were closer I would buy it right now!

    Please take some time and reconsider. I almost sold mine mid build at one point and decided not to. You can do this!

    I sent you a pm also.

    FYI, that car is a Mk3, not a Mk2.

    Thank you all for the interest in the car. After an outpouring of interest across platforms i decided to list the kit on ebay motors to facilitate the sale. You can find the auction at the below link - Ebay Auction listing here
