Rodney yours is done.
I've been looking for a Shelly jack (or even a King Dick) but have not had any luck. I researched and found that the correct jack is the Shelly Jack, LJ22 with a cradle (rather than an L) shaped jack pad. The only things that I find that are close are located in the UK and they cost an arm and a leg before shipping cost. This looks like a great idea to replicate and sell to the Cobra community, along with a jack handle and the correct clamp to mount the jack within a Cobra trunk. Motorsports International (located in El Cajon, CA) once offered this but they went out of business some time ago. What do you say Mickmate? You think you could add this to your list of projects?
