THANKS FOR TRYING TO GET THIS TRAIN BACK ONTO THE TRACK --

I DON'T BELIEVE THAT WE WANT TO AUTHOR AN ENCYCLOPEDIA. IF WE HAVE AN INSPECTION CHECK LIST WE DON'T NEED TO INCLUDE EVERY INDIVIDUAL THING THAT CAN GO WRONG.

IF WE SAY "INSPECT THE BRAKES" AND THIS INSPECTION IS PERFORMED BY A REPUTABLE SHOP THEY WILL CATCH ALL OF THE THINGS YOU MENTIONED.

I THINK WE NEED TO BE ABLE TO SHOW THE INSURANCE INDUSTRY THAT A "KIT COBRA" CAN BE ASSEMBLED AS WELL AS A SUPERFORMANCE OR ERA FACTORY BUILT COBRA. IT SHOULD BE "AS GOOD AS" AND ORIGINAL COBRA. IF WE TRY TO MAKE IT AS "SAFE" AS A LINCOLN TOWNCAR OR NAVIGATOR WE ARE "LOSING THE HANDLE ON REALITY" AND COULD LEAD THE INSURANCE COMPANIES TO REQUIRE THINGS THAT ARE UNREALISTIC IN A COBRA. WE NEED TO ADDRESS THE QUALITY OF THE BUILD AND NOT GET BOGGED DOWN IN "FAMILY SEDAN" SAFETY FEATURES THAT THE AVERAGE COBRA DRIVER IS NOT GOING TO WANT.

Y'ALL HAVE A REALLY GREAT DAY.
