cobra hardtop?

[brakedust300]

what cobra replica's can you get hard top's for? iv seen a few really nice ones that flow with the car & go quite a way back, but also some crap ones that are boxy and spoil the look. living in scotland its something im really going to need! any advice and pics, links etc would be ace, im still loving the dax replica but ill prob only have 11-14k to spend so i may strugle for that money

The problem with these is that they run right across the bootlid so you can't open it. That's why most are shorter.

I think you'll find that that one opens up to allow the boot to be opened also.


Dave will be along in a moment or two to confirm..

You're right Craig - rear hatch opens in hardtop - then you can open your boot.
Very nice hardtop the DB one - if Carlsberg made 'em, they would be the exactly the same.

Ah, that's more useful. Couldn't see a shutline in the original photo so assumed it was like the original 'Le Mans' hardtops fitted to racing Cobras to improve aerodynamics. As they went across the normal boot line the cars got special small boot lids to suit.

seems like a good price as well for what looks like a quality bit of kit

Brrr, that looks nasty . . .

Good one - but original - here:
