Oh, it is going to be a while.  I am designing my own fuel delivery and intake system, and some other tidbits as well.

I am shooting video as I progress and will have the video ready when the car is ready.

There are a few potential patents involved, which is why I am not releasing any prelim photos.

Thanks.  Creativity isn't one of my assets, apparently it is one of yours.

Keep us updated.  I want to see the results.  Sounds like something special.

Lone Star Classics.  I wanted a car I could drive, which paid homage to the original Cobra.  If it was an original, I would be terrified to get it on the road.

That seat is going to be full of equipment while I run various tests.

I'll be spending a lot of time between Midland and Abilene on 20. :)

I saw a Cobra yesterday (a reproduction) and thought of you and your build. Glad to hear it is going well!

She has no desire to ride in any convertible.  She is terrified a rock would bounce over the windshield and split her head open.  She goes through a lot of windshields.  Two, so far, this year.

EDIT:  She did say she would ride in it, if I buy her a helmet to wear, but only for short trips.
