Default New Aluminium Body Takes shape

This used to be the scene:



...in various states ...

However, after 15 months of build in my brother's shed the cobra has been relegated to the old shed pending the transfer to mine.

The significant occupation for build time and associated labours did create a significant debt on my part, which my brother has not left to fade but rather has determined will be fully paid ...



I'm going to be grinding like a $2 stripper (to mix a metaphor)

Brings a whole new meaning to slab side Cobra.

Ahhhh...aluminium.....I've heard they make really nice engines outta that stuff.

That boat looks like a design from a company in WA. Was it a precut kit?.

I had a witty comeback but I'm having trouble typing it because of this involuntary flinch I've suddenly developed.

Cheers
