New Member and New Owner of an 'Old' Kit

[SteveG23]

As a way of introducing myself to the group, I am an old car guy located in upstate NY. Although I have restored many cars earlier in my life, kids and work has kept me away for awhile. Since I always wanted to build a Cobra, I recently found a Classic Roadsters kit that was never built and had been in storage since the early/mid 1990's (long story here). I just picked it up yesterday and have begun to sort through everything to see what is there and what is missing (some boxes were opened and parts spilled out over time). Hopefully it won't turn out to be a mistake, but I got it at a good price (time will tell).

All I know now is the manual has an issue date of July 16, 1992; it is missing a windshield frame, and I have to look closer to determine if it is set up for a Ford or Chevy smallblock. As I said, I only got it yesterday so I still have to look through the 'pile of parts' more closely. Hopefully what is missing can be either bought somewhere or can be relatively easy to fabricate.

Looking forward to sharing my build diary and asking for some insight from this great knowledge base as I get started. Thanks!
