Roadster Kit Car Built In Only Five Days - Detroit Muscle S1, E13

[@thatdutchtoolboy1994]

A Cobra doesn´t need a stereo. The engine makes the music.

[@Karpofcarp]

The best comment I ever heard, FCK yea

[@whateverdude9217]

They actually read the instruction manual. 😂 that's how they stay ahead of schedule. Guys are like "I don't need no stinking instructions" then have to redo crap...😂😂😂😂😂

[@everettamador9885]

Awwww...ya knew....

[@chopperhedduck]

I read the manual, watched every vid I could find, and googled the hell out of it. 1500 hand popped rivets in the cockpit and trunk alone

[@7884golfguru]

Hahaha so bloody true 👍

[@Darknamja]

Nothing like having a good tech manual to refer to. 😎

Whatever dude! 😅

[@hallives939]

This was a brilliant promo for Factory Five. If 5 women can do it in 5 days, why can't you. I'd expect a huge bump in sales due to this little stunt.

[@velocityjet1884]

Unlike myself, I just don't have the time, but hell yeah this was impressive

[@kenwelch198]

Key word, 5 of the best women in the business. LoL with my skills it would take 5 months!

[@gregoryisom7741]

@@kenwelch198 right, i thought this when the lady said "the wheels made by my son" but then there is a sucker born everyday. I am sure you could do it in five days too with the entire factory five and power nation AND summit staff setting up everything 5 inches from its placement position with the tools needed all cleaned polished and organized.

So glad to see ladies kicking ass and putting in the with. Car looked great from here.

Got a chance to drive one of these here in the UK last week. So much fun.

[@forddriver8827]

Small minds amuse small things.

[@chopperhedduck]

Beautiful car, with way more handling and power than the original had. That car was pre-built, and reassembled for the show. It took me almost 2 years working 8 hour days to build one. And i had help.

[@robertwinston2496]

My thoughts exactly. I own a MkIV and it's taken me almost a hundred hours to get to a rolling chassis. Most of that car was already assembled, disassembled, and then re-assembled for the show. Case example: when they take the brakes out of the box, it's already assembled to the hub, which it isn't from FFR or Wilwood.

[@jjmaxx3834]

I finished my MKIV a few months ago. It took me about 20 months. I did the body and paint myself. They left out a lot of work!!

[@forddriver8827]

5600 hours for a kit car?

When you have EVERY STINKIN PART in front of you, and they are all NEW, the body's been pre-prepped and painted, a killer tool set, a lift, and 5 people that know what they are doing... Yeah, 5 days is possible.

[@Diesel257]

Don't hate. You and 4 of your friends couldn't do it. If you could you wouldn't feel the need to be so negative.

I was thinking the same thing lol.

[@BradleyBellwether-oy2qi]

RIP Jessie Combs I wish she could have been on this team! She brought the work of 3 people and the knowledge of 10 people.

[@jsimmonstx]

I've never been a fan of Coddington wheels. IMHO, the Halibrand replicas would have been a better choice, but then again, I'm more of a purist. What was the cost of the kit as delivered?

[@campaspe810]

They are disgusting like all od Boyd's deaigns

[@brunningwolf]

I own 2 original cobras 427 had them for yrs got pulled over on I 90 doing 130 mph I knew the trooper here in Montana

[@luftwaffe6521]

Had my FF 65 392 windsor at 135 on I90 in Illinois and had to lift. Front end became so light I was a bit concerned she was gonna flip. They sure can use some help with downforce. She had plenty more rpm to go too. Pullin hard!

[@logicalguy488]

I was impressed that all the ladies knew how to ride stick shift. When I grew up everyone drove stick. Today I find guys in their 30's and 40's who can't drive stick.

[@averagecarguy420]

I’m a total car nut and have been driving stick as soon as I could drive, the first car I ever drove had a manual trans. I’m only 17 and after being a car guy for so long I’ve spread influence in my school and now I know at least 4 or 5 people my age who have learned stick. Much better than zero!

[@lickthatbootbiaaatch]

Stick shifting is easy, over here in the UK 95% of drivers learn to shift.

[@jasongooden917]

So much beauty.. The ladies are alright too.

[@uptownsamcv]

AWESOME !! I would love to build one someday.....

[@jonathanparker5375]

Awesome job ladies. That’s something I wouldn’t even try.

[@tedcollins4684]

Worked on and driven 427 cobra kit(not factory five) true copy, way better to look at than drive.

[@dizzydavid4668]

7 years ago but still an amazing build by some talented WOMEN!! I wonder how the car is doing or what ever happened to it?!

[@ironmanhulkbuster]

7 years ago? So all these videos are old?

@@ironmanhulkbuster I guess so, not sure but this one is from 2014

They do put their newer videos here, about a week after they first show on TV, but they do put up a lot of their older videos too.

I believe a Factory 5 Mk4 kit is in my not too distant future. In fact I'm thinking by the end of the month I will place my order

[@user-ic7mv6bj4w]

Building one of these should be in every petrolheads bucket list.

[@gvet47]

So the finished kit car probably ran over $100,000. .More than 5 days just to prep and paint the the body. Big start. When you can have every part and tool ready at one time makes a big difference.

[@wayoutwest4944]

Cobra's have curves, but I lked the curves and smiles of the build crew better.

Very magical how no parts were missing, and everything went together perfectly. Why these advertisement shows are going away….

[@midlifemotox]

I want to build a Cobra with an LS engine. Perfect!!!!!

[@abeodez751]

Crazy that was all done in 5 days?? 😲👍👍

[@BradThePitts]

It's possible to do if the body has already been fitted & painted, if you have all the right tools including a lift, and if you have a coach there if you get stuck. I also noticed some sub-assemblies have been put together, for example, out of the box came a brake caliper, rotor, and spindle all in one piece. The kit does not come like that. Almost assuredly the car was partially mocked up, disassembled, and shipped.

[@paulmarion3290]

I wish this school was at the factory five factory in Massachusetts . Then I could drive there and I would go to it .

[@neilhowe2665]

its refreshing to hear you mention ac cars ,not just 'shelby'....they rarely get the credit 'for making it happen' this side of the pond.....

[@jonathanmedhus8609]

Where is the footage of the lady's doing the body work? or the actual wiring, or any of the time consuming detail work. How much is the mostly finished kit they are building?

[@clutch5sp989]

These two guys are my fav. Seem less fake than the rest.

[@hectorherbert6585]

yep..watch out for that fire wall and proper heat protection..it's for sure one of the most important thing when 'building' such car...it's even more important for closed cockpits..,it could ruin the entire pleasure of owning such a car and degrade precious wires and tubing..'heat control' is a must and has to be well thought of. ,ride comfort and sound if it's not just a track toy..!..dynamat/boom mat and other heat shields..extra manual extractor fans are not a luxury also ,especially when stuck in traffic...it will add reliability ,better performance and pleasure of driving..

AC Cobra is ACTUALLY an English Sport Car.. Started off as an AC Ace then Cobra then they were transported to America and Carol Shelby put a different engine in one so was called an AC "Shelby-Cobra" due to him adding a different engine, but it's a BRITISH Sport Car 👍😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

[@davidporeilly1]

Yes, and the AC Ace was a tribute to the beautiful cars from Ferrari of the era. So the Cobra replicas are a tribute to a tribute to a tribute.

[@AB-C1]

​​​​​@@davidporeilly1No that's not how it works fella. The AC was an original Car design. NOT a Copy! Nothing like a Ferrari either.. The Shelby Was a British AC Car that was modified with an American V8 Engine. The British Cars of the Era were Phenomenally beautiful and Nothing like Italian Cars.. the E-Type Jag was the best looking car of the era possibly of ALL time! So what you're saying it utter rubbish fella

[@swakage13x]

I prefer their Daytona replica because that thing just looks like a hybrid between a Porsche an a classic muscle car and looks and drives better than a gt40

[@briansearles4473]

I love the valve covers on this Windsor engine. Looks to be a new design, reminds me of a Cobra valve cover for an FE engine?

[@s.hooper4683]

I had to roll back the video to find out. I guess that is a Windsor as the intake manifold stops at the lead edge of the valve cover where on an FE, the intake is part of the valve cover flange. I've been building Fords for 40 years and I have never been able to get my head around the whole "stroking" for more cubic inches. From everything I've learned about building my Fords over the years, the more you bore it and stroke it out, the more reliability/durability you sacrifice. I guess the tech is there now but for my money, if you want big cubes, you start with big cubes. The 385 series engines are my usual "go to" when building the old 70's trucks while I head straight for the Cleveland when dealing with cars. Also, very few of my builds include automatics. There's nothing like rowing through the gears in a car/truck with a 400 (or so) horsepower 429 in it. Just my opinion.

I'm curious why FF and Superformance and Backdraft put the fuel tank right at the back like that? Your handling around corners will change as the tank empties. Not knocking it. I'm putting a polypropylene tank in near the centre of mass, baffled, with twin electric pumps.

You and me both, the problem is they're designed around having easy access to pull 20 year old Lancia and Alfa, etc. window regulators and door latches out of a junkyard because they're made in the UK, and I'm in Canada and have next to no access to those parts.
