SECOND POST
Hi all, I ran a second Post as I just went back Brent and realised that you had contacted me regarding the heat shield.
I have used a fibro sheet about 4mm ( 3/16th) and attached this to the inner footwells. Then the whole footwell/box and the inner guards are covered with aluminium.
I will put some of the heat shield down lower on the footwell/boxes as I find they get a little warm after prolonged running.
Thanks for the tip there. I will certainly try attaching it this way.
Hi Rick,
I asked Wayne one day when we were cruising around Evansville, how many Cobras are in town there and he was able to name a few. So its good to see that you guys all live reasonably close and may catch up and add to the number in town.
It sure is a small world.
I am old enough to have written letters. So I would sit down as a younger guy and write to my friend in England and wait his reply. Boy its different now. I can have a full discussion in a matter of minutes and ask questions, research all sorts of things here.
Rick the name Steve Flanner is not familiar, but I do know there are a few people exporting some of those hard to get parts out of Australia.
About an hour from my home in Mt. Gambier, South Australia, I have a friend who exports Ford Mainline utes into America and parts for the Ford Victoria. He brings Mustangs back in. Will ask if he knows the name.
My memory of Owensboro is driving around looking for the highway to 66.
I drove around three times and kept going under the bridge. Moved one street south and finally got on and over the bridge. I enjoyed the drive north then to 66 and into Newburg.
I think I mentioned, I spent about an hour touring/driving around two housing estates just out of Newburgh. I then had a meeting at the McDonald's store, I mentioned this to BB427 in the previous Post.
Again, how small the world is I was only 1/2 a mile from his home. Well next time. Will drop in a say "Hi mate".
Stay safe, I out and off with the Cobra in the sun
Cheers
Bernie
