Car is done and shipping to me Friday
 
I think my last post mentioned my "cobra rescue", where I hired Mark Dougherty to help me finish my car. Well it's done and is coming home and is ready for title. I hope to do that sometime late next week.

Here are some pics, I really like how it turned out. I missed the early events this year, but now will be able to join.

Very nice Mike. I'm new to the Cobra world. Is it a FFR,302c.i. supercharged? I have one almost just like yours. Believe me, you'll injoy it to the max. The supercharger does wonders to that engine. Enjoy

Thanks.
Yep is a supercharged FFR. It's on older version MK2, FFR number 3463. I think they are in the 6000's now and MK3's

One of the most exciting days of my life was waiting for the truck driver to call and tell me he was an hour away. He did and I got the car 6 hours later. A long six hours later. Have fun.

What a beautiful color combination. I can't wait to see it in person. Love the black.

Very nice Cobra Mike. I like the wheels you picked out. From the pics it will run as good as it looks. I also like the stripe-paint color scheme. SHARP !

Thank you all for the positive replies.

@ Mike - I have to give credit to Mark for the final look and finish. He took the car where I had left off and went over everything! The car is much more a cleaner build then I had left off. I'm amazed at the engine compartment for example. I had stuff mounted everywhere.

@ John - I already know that feeling. The progress of the car slipped a little with Mark. He was spending quality time making it right. I was very impatient waiting, I told him it was like a kid waiting on Christmas. All the next small events are going to drive me nuts (delivery, title, ect)

@Lonestar- I struggled with the wheels. I had bought them several years ago when I was a working on the car myself. I had already done many huge changes and needed to save money so I left off the 4-5 lug conv and choice of other wheels. I was thinking of doing this with Mark, but decided on the KISS concept and left it alone and was happy with just getting the car done. I may change them one day when I have several 1000 miles on the car, but for now I love them.

I look forward to meeting the group at a future event.
Mike
