Default Car is ordered

Well, I have just ordered a build on a Cobra.
3 months time I'll get the chassis etc... and then set about getting it together.
Looking at LS3 engine and 6 speed box etc...........
In a year, it should be on the road, all going well.
Going for a blue colour, 17 wheels, and the rest will be worked out as I have a few months before I have to worry about it.

I hope that you enjoy it as much as most of the folk on this Forum seem to have Lawrence. There are high and low points but time, thought and support are key aspects. Warwick is also good to work with. I found the support of previous Harrison builders invaluable, so don't be afraid to ask.

best,

Merv

Yep Good choice TL (I am biased of course). Good luck cause it is a hell of a ride before you even drive it. I think you actually spend 4 times as much time thinking through the possibilities then doing the actual build.

Congratulations - good choice. Don't get too hung up on the 3 months delivery, Warwick is usually optimistic my 3 months turned into 5.

Looks like we'll be travelling down the birth canal together....
I also am in the mix .

Warwick has been busy getting a few out of the way, and then he can get stuck into ours....i.e. yours and mine.

Let's hope all goes smoothly.

Cheers,
Warren.

Ha Wazza
I ranked your reply a + and it turned your score to neutral
Does that mean anything like do you get some free coupons or something. Anyway why have you got that funny diff going in your build you never answered me on the other thread so I am asking again here. It looks like some rear end out of an old truck. Not the sophisticated mechanical devices normally associated with you.
