Just an update. It sure looks like it's the old rack, pulled the rod ends off and sure enough, the driver's side control rod out of the rack seems loose. Probably 1/16"? of play. No play on the other side or on the new rack.

Rec'd the Flaming River rack today. And I found two new rod ends in my collection of parts. Have to get the old rack out ... got the nuts off of the bolts but I'm going to have to move the radiator to get the bolts and rack off the chassis.

So I might as well drain the radiator and fix that weep at the t-stat housing (I'm thinking a thin layer of RTV will fix the weep).

Oh and I've still got to cut off 7/8" of the ends of the new rack's threaded rod part.

But by the time I get this all finsihed my VIN number for the Cobra should be here so I can get the car registered!

Ah, registered and on the road ... what a thought!!!!
