Good cruise day.....

[LREYBURN]

John...that route would be great for a POKER RUN! Meet in Highland Village or Flower mound for breakfast and first card plus map of stops and then head out. Then we could hook up at Rudy's in Denton for the last card, lunch and distribution of the Poker Pot.

Your thoughts?

Sounds great guys, thanks for the invite..........NOT!!!

Actually, last week I picked up the new engine, dropped it in Saturday, plumbed it back up Sunday, and started it up yesterday morning all by my itzi. (I'm so proud of myself) Then Yancey & I cruised 50 miles in the afternoon. Hot & humid. Not too comfortable, but well worth it.

A couple of hitches; runs over 100d C at times. Also, for a 3 minute time period the alternator gauge went crazy and the engine sputtered and coughed. But there after ran like butter. The gas gauge also decided to go on the fritz. Probably protesting fuel prices.

Tonight, I'm heading to Forney to meet Jim J Cups and the snotty #22 for a Sonic cruise.

Ain't life GOOD

So John, how'd the ERA do? Any issues so far? My windshield is due in from England this week according to Cobra Restorers. Would like to get that done before Mid America. I changed out my speedo gear .. 19 tooth now is right on per the GPS. Also put in a new alum catch can as the plastic one melted

Steve .. congratulations on being a big boy and getting it done! Electrical problems .. hmmmm, maybe have a look at those battery cables we had trouble with. And make sure you hooked up all the ground straps to engine, tranny, and panel.

Sunday, I took the Cobra over to the nearby assisted living center and loaded up a WWII vet and brought her over to our house for dinner. When I shut it down in our driveway, my 92 yo Mom said .. "this thing sounds like it needs to go to the garage!" Then as she stepped away from it, she turned around and patted the rear fender and grinned

Oh yeah Steve,.....when you can drop your own engine back in without TITS, that is a huge accomplishment. Got film to prove it?

Just kidding, glad you are back on the road.....maybe after more breaking in the temp will settle down some.
