Robert Julian is now to the point of bolting things into the car

For those of you unfamiliar, picture a project at SVT.. where they build a
lookalike using 65 fastback skin stampings on an '03 Cobra chassis with
powertrain and interior

I'm very curious as to what the finished vehicle will weigh. I seem to
remember Mr. Julian mentioning a weight of around 2500 Lbs. Seems a tad
optimistic, but if that's the case, that puppy's gonna fly.

No way!

I cant see how it can possibly weigh less than an 03 Cobra Coupe

How would you know? You couldnt bother to read the whole SN65 thread,
or you'd know they wont have a problem with that...

Just sick of you...

Yeah, considering some of the extra bracing I've seen added and the
attention given to strenghten the chassis, there isn't a whole lot of room
for weight loss.
If anything, I would expect heavier.

I just scanned that thread looking for the estimate, and couldn't find it.
Either it was in another forum or I have confused his project with something
else.

I forget what he said at the open house, but it was a fair amount over 3000
