Welllllllllllllllll, so far.....................
Welllllllllllllllllllll, I finally got the body sitting more like it should (still have some tweaking to do) and found there are 3 things keeping the hood from shutting, the 2 air cleaners, the master cylinder resivoir, and one of the intake pipes.......my brother, who "IS NOT" mechanically inclined asked if I could fix it with a BFH **)**):JEKYLHYDE:JEKYLHYDEoh well, looks like I didn't quite get that 10lbs. stuffed into that 5lb bag :CRY::CRY:back to stuffing :LOL::LOL:
I also see there is going to be quite a bit of fiberglass work to do :(:(:( It had me sooooooooooo frustrated I caught myself saying I wish I had never started this project :eek::eek: but then, in the next breath, "I'm GOING TO FINISH this PROJECT or its GONNA FINISH ME"!!!!!:D:cool:%/ |
I had to settle for one of those small chrome air filters and return the nice big oval one to Finish Line as I could not close the hood without doing some major surgery.:mad: The small filter fits but it really restricts the air flow.
Put the BFH away when working on the finer parts of a Cobra.:p:rolleyes: Wayne |
