Aldersonjames20 has the same idea as me. while building the Cobra I NEED certain tools. 4-post lift. ( it fits in a normal shed and there is enough room to slide around under on a gas lift stool,I will be removing and modifying trusses in the future); blasting cabinet,compressor...the list goes on..I-beam with travelling hook, NiCo plating plant, lathe, mill, drill, Tig & stick welders and lots of "junk" to go with it, so much that there is no room for the Cobra parts. They are in the house ! seats and side pipes in the lounge, windscreen and radiator fan in the main bedroom; heater,gauges,headlights...all the small bits on the bed in the 2nd bedroom and I'm on the cobra website in the 3rd bedroom.... I might be a bit cobra "strange" ...people at work say hello and then ask how the cobra is going. I have mastered the technique of being not too informative, enthustiastic and then boring; to answer most people but for any that show any glimmer of extra interest I fear they tend to avoid the subject for a few months afterwards.

I'm not married.

Ok, you win.. you are hard core man. As long as you don't grow a big long beard and start mumbling to yourself all the time, your still sane, but barely.

If you were married, your wife would currently be found in a lab somewhere being genetically tested to see if she could be cloned, and all testing would be funded by the Club Cobra members. We would all love a wife that could put up with that and stick around....lol.
