AP016 Build Thread
 
I had a few guys from work come over to checkout the workshop so I got them to give me a hand to remove the body. Very easy job with 4 people.

Last weekend my son gave me a hand to build a frame to store the Body
http://www.clubcobra.com/forums/pict...ictureid=13772
One night after work we hung the body off the rafters. The 4 post Hoist made lifting the Body up very easy : )

I reckon Satin Black would look pretty Sick with my FPV engine and the SS mirror heat panels. You have my mind thinking **)**)**)**)

I reckon it would look awesome for sure...all satin black with that lovely blue...One mean looking Cobra...I am 99% locked in....Actually if wazza is reading this can the chassis be powder coated before it leaves the factory??

actually i would have thought powder coating might have been on the options list . while i love the alloy look i reckon the red body with black powder coating would look smick i might send a picture of the chassis to one of the powder coaters here in adelaide that do a lot of race car chassis and see what they think . unless pace has a reason as to why they shouldn't be done ?

I never tire of seeing pictures of that suspension!
Progress is good (particularly for mid-winter).
Cheers,

I agree.

So much alloy, so clean, such a well presented package for any builder.

Keep the updates coming, great to see.

When you say .."fixed the rear pushrod flanges" what went wrong?

It's all good Richard...nothing went wrong..

I asked Darryl about that, and he confirmed he meant "affixed"...not "fixed".

Had me concerned at first, because I didn't recognize that flange
( ours are a creamy white colour)...turns out he'd painted it black.

Cheers,
Warren

Bad choice of words on my behalf, I should have said attaching or installing.

deano59 06-22-2015 10:36 PM

i reckon they look good black

Auswallaby 06-26-2015 06:50 AM

ha ha, that's what's wrong with written text...easy to make mistakes and misinterpret things...

albanycobra 06-26-2015 07:27 AM
