Bought my Butler Racing Cobra components in 1986 I was 36. After many start and stops attempts, caused by living life, which included some near death experiences, I finally got her done to be able to drive her this Spring. What a joy! It has taken years off my real age of 63.

27 years in the making...could be a record.

This was a solo event for me and the only time another set of hands were laid on the car was when I placed the body on the frame.

It was a love-hate relationship and you can explore the build in my Facebook album below.

Driving her for the first time this year is a total love relationship But when I dismantle her and start the painting process it will be love-hate again. Hoping for nirvana and bliss when that is finally done.
