ERA 289 FIA Owner's Log - Cobalt289
I bought my car used, which means I didn't get to experience the joy - and pain - of building it, but I wanted to have a thread to post pictures and document the changes I've made to the car, all in one place. So here goes.

Nice work! Even though you did not build the car, you put a lot of work into the re-building of it. Like the colors and what you have done.

Shelby Team Driver Allen Grant
Legendary Shelby Team Driver Allen Grant came to the South OC Cars & Coffee in San Clemente today and was kind enough to compliment the car and take some photos. That's Allen on the left.

That's a nice compliment to receive. You did an excellent job on the car. Now put some miles on it and make everyone jealous.

Great video - I can tell how fun and easy it would be to talk to you from this segment. Car looks great. The only thing I'll add is that you really should replace those original tires (:

I found an old-school Dymo label maker and added retro labels to the dash switches, and a redline to the tach. The easiest mod of all time!
