Right Inner Wheelwell Clearanced for Larger Tires
Optional 'bubble' added to Midstates body to clear larger tires. Almost looked like a hoodscoop stood on end. They cut out section behind seats and simply glassed this in. Appears to offer plenty of clearance for the 335/35 ZR17s I am using

Cobra_Dash_with_new_Glove_Box_Small_
Originally, I had the glove box lid closing precisely into the glove box opening. It just didn't look right so the hinges were re-designed and a new larger lid manufactured to fit over the glove box opening instead of into it. My feelings are that this looks far neater. I am happy with the result. Thanks for the idea Phil.

Auto Tranny vaccum origin
I put the auto tranny vacuum hose on this 1/8" vacuum outlet because it matches the modulator intake at the tranny - both are 1/8" size. Larger vacuum at the back of the carb I used for the brakes alone.

ERA 289 FIA and CSX 2490
Tom Cotter's original 289 Cobra and my ERA 289 FIA - easy to see here how much wider the FIA body was to accomodate larger racing tires.

Trunk weather strip
Finished installation. Not very pretty, but using the larger dia. bulb wopuld not compress easily enough to permit the trunk to latch and allow the deck to be flush with the adjacent body. The original dia. weatherstrip did not compress along the top and sides at all.

Two sizes used
Smaller dia. bulb "splices" into the larger bulb by slipping into the ID. Should help to keep the water out.

4" Pipe installed
This is the height of the 4" pipe, as installed. You may consider 5" or 6" pipe, which would require less cutting of the body. Using larger pipe will affect the other dimensions.

Cobra A arm?
Some news! When I bought the car it came with two sets of front A arms. I've attached a photo of both. We think the larger set is from the Cobra that "donated" the rear end, brakes, and suspension. Can anyone verify that the large arm is from a Cobra?
