Unique Motorcars kits ?
 
I am new here.... Wow, this is a terrific website/forum. We are
truly living in the space age. There is more info on the internet
than on the Star Trek Enterprise computer.

I happen to live closest to this company in Alabama and am trying
to find info about them etc. I cannot find them in the mfgr listing
here or their cars and I think they have been around 30 or 40 years.
I fear there may be a reason and if so would someone please send me a private message.

My 1st choice for kit has always been a Ferrari 250GT and I am sorry
to read here that no companies are currently making them. I always
thought the style had the brute performance appearance but combined
with a lot style and class. My 2nd choice is the Cobra and it seems like
my first decision is to decide between 289 or 427 version.

Hi
The only info I can find on Unique Motorcars is from the magazine "The Complete Guide To Speciality Cars" from 1991.

Here is a scan of their advert

and the write ups of their cobras

As I'm in the UK I don't know if company still exists but I hope this info helps.

Is it the 250GT Lusso, Bueno or PF you are interested in?
There are people out there who can manufacture a body buck from photos and CAD drawings for any car which would enable you to make a fibreglass body although this would be relatively expensive when compared to buying from a kit car manufacturer.
Best regards

They seem alive and kicking. I typed "unique motorcars" into Google.
