Driving a Cobra on Sunday morning from Cars and coffee
It was a pleasant morning weather, the Lincoln Drive in Philly was half empty, so the drive was really a blast! I hope you enjoy the co-pilot view and a nice sound of V8.

Shleby Cobra Spring cleaning
Переглядів 54711 місяців тому
Every spring I do a Cobra clean up - I get under the car and I just wipe everything with a rug. Usually it's a lot of dust, dirt, grease, oily residue, etc, etc, that is collected over the previous season. I check some bolts and other things, to make sure there are no leaks too. So this year I just strapped GoPro to my head and did the same, but with a camera. Some recordings of that are below ...

Rivian R1T: 9 things to inspect first when you receive your Rivian truck
Переглядів 16 тис.2 роки тому
After one month of owning the Rivian R1T truck I want to share several things that I think Rivian could do a better job with the truck's exterior: a frunk, a charging port door, doors installation, paint, and other things.

Rivian purchase process: trade-in, insurance, financing and delivery

These are the questions I hear the most often about Rivian: - Where and how do you buy it, is there a dealership? - How do you charge it? - What do you do if you need it serviced? Next video I'm going to talk about some minor issues I found with exterior assembly.

Our Rivian R1T truck that we preordered in 2020, was finally delivered less than 48 hours ago. This is the first video that we shot just to show you what it looks like and to hear some impressions from a regular guy, not a professional reviewer. More videos to come!
Driving Shelby Cobra in the snow

We don't get snow often, so of course I had to grab this opportunity and have some fun with our Cobra. It was such a blast, and the car handles great in the snow
Shelby Cobra kit - cold start
Переглядів 7 тис.2 роки тому
Just trying to start the car in cold weather after it had been parked for a couple of weeks. Last time I did it I encountered some issues, likely due to electric choke set up incorrectly. So I adjusted the settings, and now trying it again.

Wow thats an endever ...😮
Hey if you attend the Corbra meet in London, OHl, I would love to see your replica in person. I live very close to the meet. I went last year and it was pretty cool
Originally from Ukraine! Well, I think I speak for most of us when I say, we are proud to have you here in the United States of America!
Very informative, thank you!
If my flyer stock pick ever flies, I'll be driving one of those.
At least your wife knew where you were, lol.
Does Factory Five charge sales tax?
They do not. But you pay it when registering your kit as a car.
Let's see...An $85,000.00 kit car with no windows or top, heater, or air, no radio, other than a go-fast car that your wife/girlfriend will only ride in once because it rides like a bad truck. yep, I'm just going out and get one...da. I'll keep my Jaguar convertible sports car, that everyone who sees it loves, drives great, and has all the bells & whistles. It's such a hard choice🤣😂🤣😂 to make... And my wife said buy it when she saw the Jag, ..... Happy wife, Happy LIFE.
nobody cares about your unreliable Jaguar. any fool with money can buy whatever. it's the building something with your hands, pouring your heart into something you really care that counts with the projects like this.
@@alexmak1The most beautiful cars I've seen are the Cobra and a '65 XKE convertible. Guess which is more reliable? Still, I'd take either one.
I'll put my finger it knows it's a carrot.
What about pinch sensors?
they are just... not everywhere
I prefer hardtop.
Bravo! How many actual working days? How many of you? What motor, trans package? Im jealous! Amazing project, thanks for posting
thanks! we spent about 3 months building the main thing and getting it titled. just two of us, me and my son. it's 347ci engine with TKO600 5 speed transmission. pretty sweet for a car that weighs 2200bs
Очень круто! Я так полагаю, эйрподсы в ушах это не только hands-free решение, но и чтобы не оглохнуть?))
В первую очередь для этого :)
Виды у вас шикарные! ❤
Привет из Украины! Отличная кобра!)
Nice! ❤
You like drifting while flooring the Shelby Cobra 427, don't you?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Great job. I am also ordering an Factory Five kit this summer of 2024. I also live in PA. Getting a VIN and Title for you was not very hard? Thank you Ron USCG RET
It wasn’t, no. You do an enhanced inspection, a mechanic signs off on the build - and then the paperwork is filed for a “specialty constructed vehicle”. That’s it.
@@alexmak1 Thank you very much. Ron
Nice! ❤
If your time is worth anything, Henry Ford was right; building one car at a time is highly inefficient. I built the first twin turbo Ultimate GTR. $332,000 in parts and a solid year of my time.
LMAO. “Wanna but a complete kit, minus a lot of the major parts?”
25 minutes of labor @ 100 per hr =$ 25 bucks .. I take of them..
Just to point out a minor flaw in your math - 25x$100 is $2500, not $25
You. Are wrong 100 per hr..25 min = 2 😂quarter segments approx which would be 40-50 bucks ..both are 🎉wrong
I been a auto electric shop owner/mechanic for 40 years.. gremlins naw…
How many hours did it take ?
Approx 600-700 man hours
well alex she looks great she had a nice pic in the calendar , my mk 1 is the last one in the calendar , and after 18 years having mine i can honestly tell you they are never done theres always something new or a upgrade i see a top or tonneau cover in your future lol great car great video , see ya on the forum
I’m gonna make sure ti check out the calendar tonight! Thanks, Chris! You are absolutely right, there’s always something to do, either an improvement or a fix :) I do have a soft top for it already though I don’t use it often. 18 years just wow! See ya!
When you get the car titled, does it not need a vin #?, or did it come with a vin #?
It does have a sort of VIN on a frame and in the papers. I believe, depending on a state, they may or may not use that as a VIN when registering a car
@@alexmak1 perfect, thank you!
Now if you were to sell what could you realistically ask for her?
Who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
if you built it with your son that IS the true cost! and that IS priceless...................
Is it legal to have no windshield wipers?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
beautiful build on that cobra bravo!
A Cobra with auto trans…really?
Don’t know know what gave you that idea but it’s tremec 5 speed manual transmission in that cobra
Beautiful!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Was wondering man hours in the build. Also wondering what it would be worth with a fairly high end body and paint. Thanks.
Looks like there's at least four of you. Hard to follow anything with as fast as you're moving
Curious, why didn’t you have it painted? Loved the video btw. Can really appreciate the hard work!
The video was shot before the paint. I did not want to wait a year to get it painted and then film the video
So it is. My bad, sometimes I forget I’m watching an old video. I’ll look for the newer video. Nice work tho, great videos!
it's cheaper to buy one you can i get one for 10 cents on the dollar at Barrett Jackson las Vegas that what i did wheelchair larry If you're Jay Leno ? disregard?
So sad that Americans don't know how to spell BRAKE. I constantly see it spelled 'break'.
My uncle builds his own cobras down the same street we're I live
Awesome job. Looking forward to the dyno #'s and finished product!
Love how the old folks were out there for the carb rebuild LMAO (Also, RIP Marshmallow!)
Yes gotta bring the big guns for that carb! (Thanks! I still miss him)
Чудова машина. Мав кобру від Еверет Моррісон у Торонто. Дякую за відео!
Earplugs are a good choice
My car was half built when i bought it ,thing is it was a factory built ford 😂😂
What's the resale value ?.. Thats the key.. Sell it for 60k and you can start on a GT 40
Resale value is a tricky thing. There are plenty of bad builds out there that often drive price and perception down for good builds. I’d say these lots don’t have collectors value anyway, so to make the amount spent back is close to impossible
Вещай на русском , подписчиков прибавится куча !
Thanks, not interested in those.
@@AlexPatsay ок, понятно ! Контент интересный у вас! Хотелось бы понимать о чем речь
Thank you 👍 I learn how not to do a completely uninformative video.
You're welcome! Your view still counts
@@alexmak1I loved it. Wish you'd build me one.
the front end looks like ...shite... looks like you had the body work done.. Thank god.
Beautiful car! What seats did you get and how tall are you? I'm looking for something taller than the stock seats but not crazy tall like some of thw high back racing seats. Thanks!
Thank you! I am 6ft, and we went with the original FFR seats. We have added headrests from 2000 Audi A4 for safety, but other than that - it's the FFR seats. I wanted a more old school look, so did not want to have high back racing seats
Alex: Thank you for taking time to post this video. I am about 1/2 way finished with a Daytona Coupe; I have a go-kart. Next task is to install the body. I agree that the FF manual is a good starting point, but there are a lot of things that are left to the builder to figure out. Lots of frustrations, but lots of good memories of working with friends to get this project to the finish line. After a 4 month winter break with no work being performed on the project, I'll look forward to starting the body work come April 24. My target finish date is July '24.
thank you! and good luck to you, it's a great fun to build something like that!
Ich wünsche mir, ei nmal dieses Auto zu fahren.bitte melde dich. Mein größter Traum. Please❤
