Yes I have a couple of manuals. Street Beast reprinted the Classic manual. Not bad for a Cobra build manual. I've seen a lot worst.

This is a 11 yr old kit with just the front suspension and the wrong rear end in it. The new owner had a shop to install a 428 and TKO600. Which is good because it's less for me to rework.
I had to change the rear end, pulled the trannie because it was missing the engine plate, there is a problem with the clutch fork that I'm working on. I may move the motor back to solve a couple of problems but I'll have to think about it for a couple of days. Motor sit pretty tall in the frame right now. I'll have to put the body on to check hood clearance.

Earl what rear end did you use?
What rims did you use?

I'll have a lot of questions before I finish with this one.

Thanks
Dwight
