Last stage, Final Frontier!!!
Well gentlemen, mine is at it's last shop (last stage). After 18days working with my interior guy (Brian) and he is the best. He went above & beyond what just interior work it needed, Wiring, fab work, etc. He's a 'old' hot-rod builder. so working on the Cobra was like old home week. Now gentlemen, before you say a word (good or bad) about my "SNAKES" on the doors , let me explain, how they got there, my Cobra friends here, know how this project has had it's start's & stops, so as a surprise, a few of them (names withheld, for legal reason's ) and Brian came up with these so I'll never lose my car in a DEN of Snakes Again it show's the brethren will have for each other. It's now at Rob's for bumpers, tune-up, and run-in. finally, boy's finally, Thank you all for letting me share, as always Cheers Tom. Hope they don't post up-side down again ? Glen you ready?

Bruce, it's the camera on my phone, I've taken many pictures just the same way. They download on my computer right side up, it's only when I download to our site, do they go up-side down, Some of these are the same pictures I sent you in the last few day's, though our emails. You received them right side-up, correct? Hummmm?

Tom,
Now that you have a Cobra, don't you know you're supposed to keep the up side up! Brent

Hi Tom
Now it looks much, much, much better!
Thanks to Glen.
I think you should now buy an Australian photo camera, to solve your photo issue.
You did a great step forward and as spring is coming closer I can already see your smile going from one ear to the other.
Enjoy it and be proud of it.
Your Buddy from Switzerland

Car's looking great, Tom. But the side pipes need to be painted flat black

My, my, aren't we SPECIAL Rob. That is just way cool. I wish you still had that car. Did you ever find out where yours went? You know I thought about the black pipes way to go, for now they will stay silver, I what to DRIVE it for a while first I've spent enough time just looking at it. My birthday is April 16 (Cobra presents are welcome ), that's the day I'm hoping for to make my first drive, with a buddy's Tiger for the video chase car. Thank you Rob for your kind words, Cheers Tom.

Love the color
Hi,
Looks great! I like the snake on the door panels, they will remind you to step over the snake bite pipes I put snakes on my windwings:

Tom,
Real nice looking ride. Although, I have to say those cobras are a little different...well, at least you do not have to worry about mistaking it at a car show with other cobras.

Jim and Perry, thank you for kind your words As I've stated, these snakes were a (surprise) present, from some great (very close) Cobras friends. Brian (int. guy.), did say if they are a little over the top for me, he would make a pair of plain ones, so I can change them, to suit my 'mood' once in a while . I heard from some other friends how much trouble they went though to make sure they were just right, the tread color had match the Simpson red on my belts, and get them done in time for Brian to install them at his shop (Finished at 9pm the night before the interior unveiling). I'd say I have some pretty nice Cobra friends, to think so much of me Also thank you too, Glen (xb-60) Cheers Tom.
