I had posted on this thread a while ago about an AWD 32 Ford called Quadradeuce:

http://www.ffcars.com/cgi-bin/ultima...t/087838.html?

Well I found my old 1995 HotRod magazine with pics of the drivetrain. I figure if it can be done in a 32 Ford, someone could figure out a way to make it happen in a cobra.

There are only these two shots of the drivetrain but they are pretty cool. Enjoy!

Justin

This was advertised on Summit Racings catalog a few years back as the same 32 you have picutred was 'redone' again. Pretty cool concept.

What a cool car that was! The real stumbling block would be the lack of space between the trans and rear on an FFR. You would need to shift the driveline forward, which would upset the balance of the car. Maybe the additional weight of the 4WD components would help to counteract that, though...

Where are your feet to go?

Looks to me the front drive shaft goes through the already too small driverside footbox....

http://www.radrides.com/photogallery.php?sub=quadraduce

THey used to have the specs on it, over 500whp, was actually on the show "Rides" once a year or two ago.

Yeah it's the same car. Troy Trepanier re-did it a few years ago.
