Damn. "Long time coming" doesn't begin to say it. Have one of your grand kids put a vid of it on youtube and then link it here.

Doug,

I remember you from...quite a few years ago now. Very happy to hear that you were able to hang on to the CCX and that it you're now looking closer to the finish line. Well done!

Everything else that's important is OK?

Cheers,
Glen


edit: not driving on 10 year old tyres with 740hp, I hope

Doug, I have one of those projects too! (My own fault). If you're able to do what you want to, when you want to... it's a pretty good place to be. Woot! Woot!

Jim, glad to see that you are still alive! I wish that you would get going
on the car (have you even picked it up from Bruce) I'm old and would like to see it before it's time for my dirt nap.

That stance looks great! Paint looks new too, so a suggestion if your going to put another set of Billboards on it (i have had 3 sets on my Hi-Tech) go on eBay and get some remnant strips of Expel film about 4-5 inches high and do the rockers and below the rear wheels. It's really inexpensive and does a good job keeping the chips at bay.

I agree, Jim. I think I am actually going to finish before you! And now that we are neighbors, if you get it going we could start the Central FL Cobra Club! Wait, is there one already?

Default cobra insurance

Doug I read your still have to insure your cobra, just insured mine, I have a 1955 thunderbird insured with Hagerty but they told me they don't insure cobra
replicas, Grundy won't insure any cars in Louisiana after Katrina.
I found this company called American Modern Insurance, they insured both my cars gave more coverage than Hagerty and it was only $150 more than I was
Hagerty for just the thunderbird.
E-Mail me if you need more info. jroussel48@yahoo.com
