Good to see the car coming back together.

I don't ever seeing myself as owning an original cobra, but if I did, I think I would try to keep as many of the original parts as possible. But it seems your family is more into the practical side of things and upgrades and replaces parts as you like to get the most enjoyment out of it.

I'm just curious, was the motor you pulled out of the car the original motor? I know you told me that your family plans on keeping the car forever, but if you have the original motor, would you keep it in a corner of the garage for the future? Or would you just sell it as a used 289 to someone? Or maybe it will end up in one of your own cobra replica projects down the road, just to keep it in the family?

Do you keep the SAAC registry up to date on things like motor changes?

Have fun with the car!
