Whose Hurricane is this?

Thanks for all the compliments guys. Don, you've been awfully quiet around the corner, I assume your car is in paint? Let's definitely go for a run when you get it done and we'll see how that small block does.

I have really enjoyed this, my first Cobra replica. I was hell-bent on painting it when I bought it (it was a 1500 mile turn-key minus) but after spending 6 months tearing it down to the frame and rebuilding it my way, I lost the patience to wait another 2 months while it was repainted. Eighteen months later I am glad I kept it this color. Its a unique paint (1994 Lambo titanium) and with the side oiler and Billboards I do get asked alot if is an original. Taking the pipes and hardware back to black is all part of trying to give it more of that CSX patina.

The new Hurricane body has had some nice improvements, including extending the rocker panels from street car to S/C length, as well as additional improvement in the amount of time needed from delivery to "ready-for-paint." The mold lines are all but non-existent and Steve and the boys in Iowa are building a great car.
