Default Can't wait

The new baby arrives next Wednesday after doing a deal on the Harrison down in Gosford, I took my Dad down with me for his opinion and he's so excited about the project he's now a co-builder/owner.

For 4 years it's been pushed around Georges' workshop making room for his customers cars.........he has only had a chance to fit up the R32 GTR independent rear end with EVO shocks and complete the front setup as well.
It's got a nice set of 8 & 10" Hallibrand replicas and Advan tyres, hopperstopper brake upgrade and the windscreen is fitted........ that's about it.

We've tossed around all the engine make options as well as buying a wreck but have decided to go the 'PROPER' way and buy Dru Drury's WINDSOR 302 HO with Tremec 6 speed, all tricked up and ready to drop into the Cob (we hope)


Anyway, got to get over to the shed and make some space.........looking forward to all you experienced guys wisdom when we enevitably hit the wall and need some answers.

Well done Greg. You will have a ball building it with your Dad. I've built a couple of Cobras with my brother and we shared some great and not so great moments together during the build, but I wouldn't trade the time for anthing else.

Glad you went with Dru's engine & box, that's a very nice setup.

Only true for you guys in NSW. We only have to comply to ADR 37/01, which that Mustang breezes through.
