Hi Ron, glad I could help. Everything is now up to Voss Performance in Fullerton, California, Car will be ready December 21st, baring any issues,  .I'll return to Phoenix December 17, install the lift over the weekend, pick up the car on the 21st, ship it to Phoenix and get it registered at the DMV before Christmas. 
It would be real neat if everything goes to plan since my birthday is on the 24th, it would be a mighty fine present to receive after dreamin' of owning a Cobra for 45 years, planning, weighing options, agonizing over BB vs SB, selectng suppliers, debating auto vs stick and all the stuff we go thru before we pull the trigger, for over nine years, then finally, after one year for the build, its arrived. Wa, makes a grown man wanna cry with gut wrenching emotion that its finally true, I got me my own Cobra, halleluja . 
Here is a picture of the car and the engine, still in the crate, seems I screwed up on the picture size though. 
Looking forward to meeting up with you and all the guys in the Arizona Cobras over the holidays. The excitement is getting to the point where its difficult to contain.......
Cheers, John, AKA, tin-man
