Question New to Forum Have Plenty of Questions

Hello Everyone,

This is my first post so be kind. I am finishing up a Classic Cobra that I inherited from my step son (long story). After 2 years I have it up and running (praise the Lord Since I took the body off myself and have the manual to put it back on, I was thinking maybe I should attempt that myself. But, I have heard that if you have never done it before it's better to have a pro do it. Plus, they can paint the body pieces before they assemble it which is the best way to do it. I am in the South Valley (Ahwatukee). Is there anyone that recommend a pro that can lead me by the hand through this final phase? I hate to screw this part up since I am so close.

Thanks for any help, plus remember, be kind, I am new at this....

I second that. Gordon will definitely be able to help. He is down in Maricopa, so not too far from you.

Wink Thanks For the Info

I definitely talk to Gordon Levy and check out the azcobra site. I would like to have it completed by Christmas (best present I could get). I did get a ball park estimate to finish for around $7-$10K but I have no idea if that even seems reasonable. Anyway, still a bunch of research to do.

Thanks Again,
Scott

I'm a bit late responding to this thread.............Gordon is the way to go. He is in Maricopa, which is not that far from Ahwatukee. He has fair prices and does quality work.

You must be "the other Scott with a cobra" that Ahren was working on yesterday. He came by my house when he was done with yours. Welcome to the club!
