Don - thanks again for the offer, but it was a full-width roll bar that I needed. (Imagine, offering to let somebody he's never met borrow some parts! WOW, Don, you're quite a fellow!)

exrodder - I'll let you know when I finally do get the roll bar.

everyone else - my CR Cobra build started with CR having all sorts of back orders ... and promises of shipment dates and the like and all lies. Just seems strangely fitting that the build would end in the same fashion but with a different vendor. Fortunately I'll be able to finish the Cobra and even drive it without the roll bar (although my wife says I'll have to keep the speed under 15 mph until I've got that roll bar)!

The thing that bothers me more than anything else is the lies. I can deal with delivery dates months in the future ... I can't deal with plans and schedules put into place based upon lies.

From what I've read, Kustom does great fabrication work. I wonder, however, if Kustom will be receiving any more opportunities to demonstrate their fabrication ability (as everyone seems to already be finding alternative sources).

Sigh.

But then again ... I started the Cobra up Sunday evening to make sure the old (bad) gas was no longer causing a fouling problem. Man that car sounds sweet! Got to get those new mufflers on order (already have the clamps on order). I ought to call DV about that steering column, would be nice to have the ignition switch on the dash ... with a push button starter. And the weather is FINALLY starting to get warm. Suppose to be 68 degrees on Thursday.

Life is good!
