Eric & Jay, that's a sweet-looking car. Best of luck with it and enjoy.

Cant wait to hear the feed back on the modular engine. I beleive it is the future for cobra replicas.

We just got neck deep in the build this week. Lots of stuff to coat so there's a little lag time before the real fun stuff is posted. Eric's car is going a step further with the front racing apron and other details...

The front apron will look cool, but it's going to be interesting going in/out of driveways (unless it's removable).

It will have Dzus style fasteners. I already told Eric it will live about 1 week on the street ;) I suppose if it breaks we can supply him a continuation apron. :)

The continuation apron is perfectly acceptable, as the original apron and the continuation apron (if needed) will remain in the "apron registry" forever. :) ;)

Hey, there's an old Kinks album/song "Give the People What they Want." :3DSMILE:

I just hope the general public is not confused by the continuation apron with all those replica aprons on the market. I agree though by definition of the apron registry that it will in fact be a real apron.

I think the real problem will come when the continuation aprons eventually hit the auction block and prospective apron buyers and sellers, those people who can drop a large sum of money on aprons, the wealthy, may have issues spending their money on what may be perceived as replicas of the original aprons.

Had some delays on tunes, headers, and all the other little items to make this car the killer it is. I can not stress how amazing this car is on the street, at 3.5k RPMs you realize something is going to pay...

Cashburn 04-15-2010 05:26 AM

Eric's car inspired another, this is as shiny as it will get (more to follow):
