Thanks for chiming in Don & DV. Just venting I guess.

Pete is good, and from the sound of it, Pete could use a staff of about 6 people himself. Now he has some health problems.

All the engineering on this car was done in the mid - late '80's. Since their recovery from their bk, it's been status quo, and nothing more. Meanwhile, the FFR's and others are upgrading, and adding options and new products.

And the FFR guys around here call my CR the Caddilac of Cobras. Yet it's the FFR's that are running late Mustang suspension and 13" brakes (not mid '70's Mustang II), and have a T-Bird 8.8 IRS as an option.

I guess being the factory gurus for CR has its own rewards. Just seems like you're doing their job for them and not even getting a thanks for it from CR while CR keeps their overhead to the bare minimum to keep the doors open and product out the door. Despite the fact that you have to keep the doors open and get product out the door yourselves.

Well, I, and editorially we here on this forum appreciate the interest, assistance, and insight.

Perhaps Gary Rutherford is at retirement age, will relenquish the helm, and new management will rejuvenate, rather than rape (as in the debacle of '92-'93) Classic Roadsters.
