- In this episode, we build a Goblin kit car from start to finish. The DF Goblin uses a Chevy Cobalt as the donor car. The version Nate chose for this build is an '06 Cobalt SS supercharged that made 265whp on a Mustang Dyno. This is the first of MANY projects the team will be tackling!
I'm planning on building one, then I saw the wcec sticker. Definitely building one
Sick keep the videos coming thank you
Thanks, will do!
Nice work!
Thanks!
I'm obsessing over this car.
Understandable! It's an amazing kit to build and insanely fun to drive!
My favorite part is when the neighbors left, and then came back.
Nice vid....Im thinking of getting one of these.
I'd recommend it! It's fun as hell!
@@WOTclub I had a slingshot...got rid of it when too many people got them down here. Ready for another toy.
Very nice!
Thanks!
Hi there love the build can you please send me more information on the chassis supplier.
I wonder if this would work with a Escort.
I Must Build One!
You should!
Well if I can’t sell my 5 speed cobalt ss super charger . Then I might build a goblin .
Why would you want to sell it if building a Goblin is an option?!
I have an 07 SS Supercharged and I'm never selling it because of the Goblin 🤞🏾🦾🙌🏿...once I stage 2 it I know the only potential left is this kit ❤
How exciting it must be to finish building it. It's Alive!
It was quite the experience! I try to talk everyone I meet into building one!
ahh so you made the harness and stripped it before hand, should of made it a lot easier. I just ordered mine and think I will do this.
Yeah, we had everything prepped and ready to install when the kit arrived. The harness was by far the hardest and most time consuming part of the whole build so it'll be a good idea to use the time while waiting to get that done and out of the way!
I just came here to say your thumbnail makes it look like a three wheeler lolololol
I am thinking about building one of these after my current build. Was there many modifications you had to do to make it work?
Not really, the kit is very complete and easy to assemble. I did a lot of modifications just because I wanted it to perform even better.
@@WOTclub that is good. I more than likely will do some modifications as well
@@decelation awesome! What sort of mods you thinking?
@@WOTclub was mostly looking into power upgrades
What did this all cost about ? Was it worth it and how many hours into build? Thnx and nice 👍
This one was about 25k but there's plenty of guys that are about 15k into theirs. Not sure how many total hours. It took about 6 hours to strip the Cobalt. The final build took about 4 full days. The wire harness took the most time by far so if I did it again I think I'd just pay to have the harness built by DF.
@@WOTclub yes, im def going to have them take care of the harness lol
what was the total price if you don't mind me asking?
I'm around 30k into this one but I have a lot of extras. You could do it for half that fairly easily!
@@WOTclub damn 30k! That's more than I was expecting. How much was the chassis?
Mantap bang... saya juga lagi bikin mini buggy...😊👍🙏
Great build. I have #408
Thanks! How'd your build go? It's hard to believe there's more than double my frame number already!
@@WOTclub I got the last of the run of the short chassis before they discontinued! Made my purchase at 11:55 Dec 31.
The build is ongoing. 06, 2.0 with Supercharger yet in automatic. So I've dubbed it The Hobgoblin.
Is it safe to assume that you have the last short frame then?
@@WOTclub yes..#408 is the last of the shorties.
What an honor that must be! I was going to sell mine to build another but then I realized I can't do that because mine will be rare one day being the standard frame. So I guess I'll just have to have 2 Goblins!
How much into the BUILD?
700 horse!
Just kidding!
@@WOTclub got eeem
Pretty sad you stripped a perfectly good cobalt. Nice job.
Not too sad...it's just a Cobalt.
watching the wiring harness portion was too much for me! I'm going to have nightmares.
You can send it to them to be ready to drop into the car
There's some issues with that too so I'd recommend doing it yourself but if you really can't do it then yeah, having them do it for you is an option.
Will someone please tell me if I can get my big ass in one I want to build one so bad. I haven’t seen one in person!!!!! I’m 6’1’’ 290 lb I’m just a big Kidd at 58
You'll fit! The only frame they sell now is the extended version so height isn't an issue and you can use thinner seats like Kirkwy or something to accommodate the width!
@@WOTclub ok thank you so much.
I'm so creeped out on how that seat at the lower right side of screen starts moving around by itself at 10:10-10:14 of the video!
There’s a person standing behind it
Not sure what to think of this video???
