[The Cobra Guy]

Thanks Bernie...with the restoration came an opportunity to get to the bare essentials of most every part. This was intended to be a quick cleanup, but escalated quickly until the only things not removed were the fiberglass footbox, the dash and the A-arms/uprights. Most items were just cleaned up, but I looked for improvements as I went.

Being a race car with an aluminum interior at birth it was like sitting in a convection oven while driving in July and August. I'm doing a lot to curb heat. Legendary hot-rodder John Buttera once said "You can't touch one part without touching adjacent parts." That's largely what happened here...in the end I'll be quite grateful as it will be like new again.
