That other guy named Ed and DVs CRII build

[Double Venom]

John,
ME turn away a Cobra!? Cpteddie must still be cracking up.over that one. In all honesty there isn't enough Cobras to build! The only thing I do different now since I am retired is I have (per my wife) cut down from 7 to 12 to one or two plus maybe a street rod to keep things interesting.

What filler cap are you referring to? I've been trying for a couple of months now to get caught up enough to remold the Lemans cap filler, is that the one you need?

If you have time come on up Sat. Cpteddie will be here and if I have (and should have) his drive shaft here in time, I want to fire it up for him since he will be here too.

In all seriousness, I could start your painting in November but I will need the frame for a couple of days as I Install the body, match all the parts and especially the doors to the frame then pull it all apart again. Frame can then go into storage or go back home until the body is painted.

Cpteddie, I think those three points are going to be right on time!

John, the oil cooler is a Finishline model, not any special brackets. I cut and welded in a piece of straight steel 3"x12 +/-, welded it in the frontal area, then when I mount the body build the aluminum shield around the inlet. I'll re-install giving the cooler a solid place to be bolted in. You don't even need to drill and tap, simple chrome/stainless 1/4x20 bolts work great.

LOL!!!

I didn't think you'd be back on tonight.... And yes I was laughing my A$$ off.

John. Please don't take this the wrong way. I think I kinda kicked DV out of his chair and back into the cobra building business. Not sure if he really knew what I was getting him into, but I do know he's had a good time so far and I think there are a lot of people who have benefited from him sharing his knowledge here. Hell we have over 14K views on this thread.

He's right. If you can make the trip up on Saturday, I don't think you'd be disappointed. He's done an unbelievable job on my car, adding things I would never of thought of and also steering me away from some bad decisions (and believe me, I've made some).

I'm leaving from work on Friday and will get close to his place and find a room. I'll be at DVs early on Saturday and leave around 3 or 4 in the afternoon. Seeing my car might give you some insight into whats to come.

DV.... Tell the wife its not my fault

See you Saturday!!!!!

Yes, the Lemans cap, was conserned that the cap filler was now longer available, sounds like you have that under control!!!

Can not make it this weekend, have work to do at the lake house in NE Indiana before closing for the winter.

Will call and talk tomorrow. Will drag the Rolling Chassis out and send pictures for you to see, then you can let me know what needs to be completed before hauling to you. This will allow you to let me know how much this might cost!!!!

Was going to try to complete all Body and Paint myself, used to own a BS, but I have been telling myself that for about 8 Years, would like drive it a little while I can still remember that I have a Cobra..............

Thanks for the help!!!

Steve,

If your talking about the flip cap itself, check this out.

If your talking about the fiberglass fuel well that gets mounted into the rear fender? Then talk to DV. I think he made a mold of mine, so he can replicate them as needed.

[johnbcomp]

Yes, I am talking about the Fiberglass, and knew of the Flip Cap @ finishline. Thanks for the reply!!

If you don't here back from DV about the fiberglass spillage well before Saturday, I'll mention it to him when I see him.
