Default I'm not EXCITED!

You know it's close when the number plates go on!





Even the DASH is looking good.



And if I didn't have enough blue already:



The bad news you all ask? My rain gauge tells me I have had over 300mls of rain in the last 3 days. Cobra weather may be some months of yet and I'll have to return to my old ways of sitting in the Cobra in the shed!

Blair,

that looks great. I love those blue lights in the gauges too.
What brand are the gauges by the way??

Great stuff Blair. Looking good mate.

The rain you're having would have washed your house onto the highway by now wouldn't it?.

Hey, whats that autronic manual doing on the floor. Aren't ya sposed to use the ford ECU?. )

And are the lucas type toggle switches acceptable now?.

Cheers mate, hope you can get it home.

Top Stuff Blair, I can't wait to see pictures of it out on the road!!

When I get to that stage I'll have to take Temaze just to get some sleep

Looks the bizz Blair - Top job - You simply can't have enough blue.

Like the plates too. I wondered about changing my rear plate as the personalised ones are quite "lumpy". After time you get used to it.

Talking about the rain, we had about six weeks to finish a job up near Collinsville (Burdekin Weir). I think it now may be 6 months after all the rain

The guages look like they are from the Autometer Cobalt range.

Thanks fellas

Schipps = The gauges are autometer cobalt. And I remember buying my kit and waiting what seemed an eternity for it to arrive. Three and half years later and lots of overtime (to pay for everything) later, it all seems worth it. After saying that I am yet to go for a drive in a Cobra yet. I hope I like it!

Rebel1 = How do you know where I live. Are you stalking me again! As for the ECU, I know where you are going! I do however have a standard Ford 4.6 ECU which I got from overseas however the amount of dieting the harness would have needed meant you may as well start from scratch. I also don't know if the standard ECU even works (I got it cheapo) and to buy a brand new one from Ford actually costs more then an Autronic or Motec. So no it won't have the oringal ECU with factory tune. SShhh. As for the Lucas switches, I don't know?

PCC I'll be knocking on your door soon, two blue Cobras hooning around Garden City / Carrondale sounds oj.

Plums = Temaze? Did you get them from Rebel1?

Post some more pics soon with my Hard Top on!

Oi Blair, you forget I spent about 15 minutes parked outside your new place waiting for all the cyclone strewn vegetation to be removed from the highway.

If I knew it was your place I would have passed the time throwing rocks on ya roof.

You and uncle Pete hooning around Carindale together is just fine with me.....Just don't come over the bridge to the Northside.

Tamaze?, you wont get any of that from me. However, If I think it's warranted I might refer you to a mate of mine and he'd fix you right up.

Valium together with a diet of Dothiepin or Sertraline and you'd have a whole lot more to worry about than just sleeping and dreaming about your cobra. .
