Hi Alvin

Same to you there.

Had an opportunity to visit Doug's workshop the other day in my Cobra. Part of the pre paint shake down..



Looks like a great Cobra you have there. Will be good to see you back on the road and perhaps ready for the March weekend



Again have a great Christmas

Cheers

Bernie

Glad to see you're getting caught up in the Christmas spirit too, Les ! I'm speaking to Victorians for a couple of hours a day on the telephone at work these days - I think it's warping my brain....

Merry Christmas to all.

You can't blame us Craig. You have to admit there was a fair bit of warpage there before you started talking to Victorians

Cheers

Merry Christmas back to you. I hope Santa didn't leave all the cool Cobra parts in Austrailia and New Zealand before he gets to my house. All I want for Christmas is a set of Halibrands.

Me too! I just placed my order in the last couple of days. Should get them in late January. 17x11 & 17x8 and biting my fingernails that I got the offsets right. I think that's all I'll be getting for Christmas this year

Mike,

I think I am going to narrow my rear axels a couple of inches first and then re-measure everything. But, when the time comes I will be sweating the offsets too.

I was sweating about getting my offsets right when I ordered my wheels - and YIPPEE.... I got them wrong !!!!!

It was alright, because all along, I'd really wanted to use spacers anyway....

I bet I ate the most this Christmas. Can stomach lining tear from being overstretched ?
