The front suspension of our 1975 AC Cobra Replica is now complete with new coilovers and an anti-roll bar fitted. The differential has been rebuilt and the rear suspension and brakes are also complete with new brake discs and pipes. The fuel tank has been cleaned and fitted with new fuel lines and hose clips.
Mauro also painted various components of our Cobra Replica in dtm satin black as well as painting the gearbox, brake and clutch pedals, and the radiator cross member in silver.
Classic car technician Julian has been building the chassis of our 1975 AC Cobra Replica. The front suspension has been painted and serviced and just the front coilovers and anti-roll bar are left to fit.
The differential is in place and the lower brackets have been fitted.
Mauro has also applied Raptor to the wheel arches.
Our 1975 AC Cobra Replica has been in the Bridge Classic Cars paint shop recently.
Chris has painted the engine bay while Mauro completed filler work on the bonnet and doors.
Meanwhile, technician Jonn got the chassis out of storage and placed it on stands ready for first assembly to begin very soon. He also cleaned and prepared various parts for refitting. He fitted the spindles to the front hubs and greased the poly bushes in the top arms.
Our 1975 Cobra Project has been in the fabrication bay with Christian.
Chris has been working out the seat position and making a drill jig for the seat rails. He then cut and welded in the box section for seat placement before cutting out the hoop positions and test-fitting them. He then cut them down to a more reasonable height.
Mauro is still busy stripping down the car of it’s components ready for shape preparation.
