Speaking of the big crash HAL my shop computer is in rehab as we speak. There was a lot of info there and I saved most of it but it's been a battle to just get all of the devices to work. So yes I feel your pain. So sit tight your present will show up this weekend just send me a new e-mail I may have lost yours. Untill then try to figure out what bodystyle you want to build. and if you ever get to the twin cities area let me know and you can come and see the build in person. Patrick

Patrick, I want to thank you for the present, I put it on CD and took it to the guys I used to work with to see if they could print out larger prints then I can. The print room was down for maintenance today but they said tomorrow is a better day. I am going to look into a body first as was suggested and start gathering materials thru the summer so come snow time in N.E.Mich I will be ready. I am revamping my shop this summer also,not gaining too much more size (96 sq ft) but will be better layout.

From what I am reading the tub is a lot cooler,dryer, and stronger, my main concern is the glass floor and will anything penetrate and cause injury? I personally really like the hurricane kit but the initial outlay hurts on retired income.

Thats It!, well the cats out of the bag. Yes I have a SO SO set of 427 chassis prints in a digital formate(pdf). Are they as good as the ones from Cobra Restores I don't know. They do not include suspention parts and some dimesions are funky but they can be printed out on 11"x17" paper and sent via e-mail. Now I could be charging people for these but I would never do that. So here is a one time offer If you want a set e-mail me your address so I can attach them and send them to you. This offer is only good until Fri. June 18th then I'm going to hide them away, in case the Cobra Restores secret agents come after me. Patrick

Don't we all? Patrick is doing a fantastic job. I've been watching his project for quite some time and am truly amazed at his skills.

For those who are interested I enlarged the print of the frame to approx 3x4ft which is real easy to read while working.
