    OH hi Charles (My first name). I have a thread here called "Hi". Quite a few pics there. I also have a long thread over at the Mercedes peach parts shopforum with comprehensive pics called "65 427 Cobra replica". I also have a number of posts under other titles such as VSE.

    I've not had real quality issues with mine, but have spent a lot of time getting it running right and getting it ready to autocross and street drive reliably.

    From What I have read you are not the original purchaser, correct? Have you made any modifications to the chassis since you have had it? Any issues that you can report or suggestions? I purchased a VSE in 1998 but had huge issues with quality and construction. It needed lots of re-work which caused to me to mothball the project until I had more money/time.

    I am restarting the project this month and hope to have it running by the end of the year.

    Are you in contact with Herb or Matt?

    By the way your car looks outstanding IMO. I love the paint. Could you direct me to where I could see more pictures? Thanks in advance for any help.

    Why in the world would you remove a true knock off and go to a bolt on wheel on a CCX? 17" and above gives the car a cartoonish look, and quite frankly, unless you are racing, would never need a...

    I'd be inclined to remove the pan, take some off each side of the kick-outs, then re-install. Modify oil pan baffles, windage tray, etc. as necessary.

    Take a look at the entire Factory Five lineup. If you see one you like, check around for a finished or nearly finished one at a good price.

    I don’t think there is a conclusive way to factually answer that question. A car garaged most of the time should help protect the tires from some degradation on the exterior side, but it’s hard to...
