What a great story! I wish you a speedy recovery too.
I appreciate Club Cobra for all the advice and information I have found, going on three years.
I stumbled on CC, right AFTER I made a deposit to Street Beasts

for my Cobra. I "vented" pretty good on CC to start, but was quickly encouraged by other Street Beasts owners on CC, that it could all work out.
In 2008, I tried to sell my "un-started" kit on Craigs list and e-bay, about three times each: failing each time. I told my wife I only had one choice: build it.

Now, as I told her, "the Gates of Hell" can't stop me now!
I ran into problems with the way the rear end was lining up, right off the bat. I turned to Club Cobra Street Beasts owners again, and got a solution to my problem.
I know Street Beasts owners are in the minority on Club Cobra, but we are just as proud as any others.
I thank all of the members of Club Cobra for being so willing to share what they have experienced and how they solved problems.
Happy New Year Club Cobra and keep it going!
Sincerely,
