My Other Build

I uploaded a video of my other project that finished a year before I started on my CB750 K4. I hope you like it.

Watch in large format in HiDef at youtube

Beautiful! Is it glas or aluminum? My dad had a friend with a 289 when I was a kid. Man to this day I remember flipping him out as I started to lean on it, just forward of the windshield. That sheet alloy was thin!!! I've always thought if I couldn't ride a bike, but could still drive, that's what I would want to have.

Its Glass. You can finish one of these for $24K and be faster than 99% or cars in your town. Mine is all new racing parts, light, 0-60in 3.4secs and finished just under $50. Aluminum is just $30K for the body and out of my budget. It is a Factory five Racing Roadster MKIII (shelby 427 Replica).

Thanks for the kind comments.

Cheers,
Kouros

awesome ride... cobras have always been my true dream car.

a minor suggestion... i know you were probably trying to credit the song... but youtube will pull it even faster because they now know the title of the song.  well, actually, they won't pull it... they'll just remove the audio for you.  which always pisses me off, royally!  if we're not making profit off of it isn't it ok, as long as we credit the song and artist?

not that i really care... i'll just keep loading youtube videos w/ pirated music.   ;D
