Well, I'm at a standstil. Waiting on Dr. Gas to get me some oval exhaust pipes. I think I've figured out how to get an undercar exhaust. I've installed the headerrs and procured the mufflers, just waiting for a couple of transitions and bends and a good days work will have me ready for first start.
In the mean time, I went to the Simeone museum yesterday for the Shelby day. It was great! Chuck Cantwell spoke about his days at Shelby and some of the other characters that he worked with (never knew they called Ken Miles "Sidebite" because he was English and spoke out the side of his mouth!). They also started the Daytona Coupe and GT40 Mk4. Great day! Here are some pics of the Cobras. I love this blue on the 427 street car:
New pics of mine coming up next!
