From the FFCOBRA board "I've just been pointed to this thread. Thank you for your kind words. You'all really are a family the way you pull together. I am really moved. To the people that have emailed me, I'll answer your emails when I get home tonight.
I am at work now, but I can bring every one up to speed. The car is in De Soto, Texas just 10 miles south of Dallas on I-35. What is finished: frame painted, rear axel installed, gas tank installed, front suspension with flaming river rack installed, foot boxes installed, petal boxes installed, some aluminum panels installed, battery installed, master cylinder with power brake booster installed. There should be nothing left to take off the donor. Thats about it.
We were just about to send the wiring off to get rid of the stuff we didn't need. While that was being done we were going to run the brake lines(didn't get started on that). I need to get the drive shaft shortened, and a cam shaft and underdrive pulley set intalled on the engine, and a new clutch. As far as I know we have everything to finish the car save for a few things that may be broken or worn out on the engine(sensors and motor mounts and such). He made a list of things he probably needed to replace on the donor but I have not found that list yet. He has detailed notes I just haven't been able to read them just yet.
I really want to thank every one who has shown sympathy to our family. I have to get back to work now but I'll keep checking this thread and my email. I'll also try to answer any other questions that I haven't gotten to yet.
Thank You,
Joel Patrick Martin
