I got them from HRE, Bill had his upholstery guy make them for me and he sent them with an invoice. He said to send him a check after they arrived, what a great fellow to deal with. I made a hole in the top portion, used the supplied Velcro tape in the fenders and used a tie wrap on the bottom portion that is snugged up pretty loose so I can pull the bottom strap in and out easily. They fit perfectly.
One last photo. I didn't know if this Cobra would come my way, but I knew that if it did, one of my other cars would need to have to find a new home quickly. I had three 1967 Corvettes and put them all up for sale. Once one sold, the others would be off the market. Of course, the one I preferred not to sell ended up selling. That's ok, though. Here's a picture of the Cobra with the reflection of the Corvette that sold in kind of a sentimental shot.

I thought that already happened with one of the extremely rare prototype Kirkham cars with a fiberglass body.
Doesn't the rear ride height look a bit low, like the tire is going to be rubbing the fender?

Both are cool cars, but neither are mine. My bronze Kirkham doesn't have a roll bar. It happily resides in the garage.

I'd love to, I'm still having registration issues. It's a long story, but I need an inspection by DPS. Not usually an issue, except they've put that on hold with Covid. If I can scrub up a trailer, I'd love to get it there.
