Default Thinking of Selling out

Times have been up and down for us .I have been so busy trying to keep up with the bills ect .When I do have some time I spend it with the 2 loves of my Life Nickey and Wyatt .The other time to myself I picked up playing the Bass Guitar back in Sept 2005 I have always lioved Music and dont expect to be any kind of rock star at my age I just love being a part of the music .
So to slow down some I need to sell my Cobra unfinished which I know if I finished it it would be worth more but I dont have the time and $ to do so .
On the other hand if I able to sell our home / buisnesses at a good price I could find a place and the time to finish the Cobra but anyway still thinking anyone intressed in a unfinished custom built Cobra ??????

Sorry you feel you need to sell your cobra but I understand the family deserves our time. Is your cobra a kit and in what stage is it in? I'm going to be buying one to start on this winter.

Its starts off to be a CMC kit ,The body is untouched has a very smooth finish ,as good as most painted cobras .
The frame has been re engineered for today's performance with 17 inch wheels .
The front suspension has been changed over to tubular , strutless control arms upper and lower carrarai coil over shocks with a flaming river Manuel rack ,
The engine has been moved back 1 inch for perfect balance so custom made headers were built .
Engine is a 1996 351w roller out of a van with 80 k miles
air gap intake
motorsport valve covers
Cobra roller rockers
custom motorsport flywheel
New clutch and pressure plate
The cockpit is my favorite the floors were drooped 2 inch and widen with a small trans tunnel all custom sheet metal fabricated !
Dash board will have digital gauges custom designed by VEI Systems
the seats are there with new upholster
Rear end 8.8 ford totally redone bearings and seals 3:27 ring gear with a motorcraft stud girdle .
Custom built trans t5 with bearing where bushings were and extra hd clutches 2:95 first .59 5th
Aluminum radiator and electric fan
Custom built American racing torque 2 with custom fit spinners
$3500.00 wheels and tires only .
I have over $22k in this not including labor so far I have not figured what I want to do .
I am sure I am missing lots of little details and parts I have all the receipts and know everything there is to know bought my dream car so there it is give me a ring if anyone is Serious .

So. . . . are you really going to sell it? I'd like to get together with you to talk about your car, my car, etc. What do you have going on this weekend? I've got a kitchen pass. . . .
