New from Florida and building a goblin!
Hey guys, glad to be here. I've already seen some super helpful stuff on the forum and it's pretty cool to see so many people into cobalts. I'm currently building a kit car from dfkitcar that's called a goblin. I'm sure a lot of you are familiar with them since some of us have came here to talk and sell stuff off our donors. I've already gotten my donor stripped, which was a 2009 lnf with 68k on it! The car was well loved and taken care of up until the point it was sideswiped "I'm assuming". I could tell the previous owner really loved it as it was clean inside and out and had a few many mods to it. Well his hard work and love for this beautiful cobalt isnt going to waste! It's being reincarnated! But this time it will be about 1400lbs lighter!

Square setups usually are more balanced. Being MR engine might make a difference though.
Being able to rotate the wheels could be huge in making consumables last.

The front end is already super light so every little bit of less rotating mass will help it. This is what was advised when I asked Adam at dfkit car. It's going to be fun figuring out what works tho lol

So sad to see a lnf go down but glad it will get repurposed for something awesome at least. good luck with the build and keep us updated.
