Intro post and question re: contacting Lynn Park

[libref]

Hello all,

Thought I'd take a few moments and introduce myself.

I'm a longtime Shelby/Cobra enthusiast and recently joined the online club as a way of making connections and building my knowledge as I plan towards building a replica; there's a ton to read and learn! I'm up in Canada, which creates it's own challenges, but every journey begins with a single step, so I'll take it slow.

As an aside, I plan to be in LA this May, and would like contact Lynn Park regarding research I'm doing that is Cobra-related, but not associated with my build. To date, I've been unsuccessful in identifying an accurate contact for Mr. Park, and thought a member of this community might be able to assist in mentoring a connection. Any advice would be much appreciated - please PM.

...and so, the journey begins.

All the best!

I would feel extremely uncomfortable giving out such information to a complete stranger.

Instead, feel free to send me yours in a PM along with a general reason why he should contact you and I’ll see that he gets it. That way, it’s up to him to decide to respond or not.

Welcome libref to our site, and good luck with your Cobra project In regard to any contact with Lynn (Mr.Park) there may be little chance, to have access to his Email and/or phone. I say this not because he is some sort of famous person, which he is in our world (In realty he's one of nicest people you would ever meet) The time he would have to spend dealing with phone calls, text, and Email, he would have no time left to have a life, or drive his Cobras The first few years was just asking a question, and when he had time, he would get back to me (Email) and this is after going through a screening (At least I found out later ) with mutual Cobra friends (In respect to who I am) I still don't bother him, unless I have a reason to call, and then I can tell if we have time to just shoot the Brezee. I'm honored that he thinks of me as a friend, and I respect his privacy. The best I can do, is shoot me a PM, and we can talk, I could then relay a message to him. Cheers Tom.

Libref, be warned. You'll be losing at least an hour out of your life if your talk to TommyRot on the phone, (Alpha02)

Hi Bill and Tom,

Thank you for the welcome, and for your generous offers to pass along a message to Mr. Park on my behalf.

Bill, as requested, I'll put a brief summary together, and reach out to you via PM early this week. Tom, I'd welcome an opportunity to chat about your experience in the Cobra community, as well as any advice you'd have as I plan my build - I'll send a PM.

Much appreciated!

You're more than Welcome libref, anytime you want to reach out. You have come to the right place, LOTS of good people with great knowledge, and more than willing to help. Cheers Tom. P.S. As KarlzEE said, I'll try to let you get a word in edge wise

New to Club Cobra !

Just acquired Excalibur Cobra, Vin 1X......3170.

Thanks in advance for reading and considering my request.

1. I am asking an Excalibur owner to please take a picture of the passenger side ECU mounting location. Mine was worked on prior to arrival, and it is no longer mounted correctly. Could someone please send me a picture, about 1 foot back, of the bracket and ECU mounted correctly?

2. Does anyone have a full wiring diagram/schematic of 1997 they could email ? I would imagine it is the same as 1995-1997.

3. Looking for a full specification/build sheet for my car, or similar build/year. I am looking for actual part numbers that came with car. Ex: shocks, rotors, pads, lights, steering components, starter/alternator, intake, etc.

All your help is greatly appreciated.

I attempted to upload pics of my ECU and VIN, failed multiple times (both jpegs are less than 95kb, less than 800x800 each).

Might want to start your own thread in the appropriate sub forum. That or perhaps ask (nicely) for a moderator to break your post out in to it's own thread in the appropriate subforum .

I note most of the Excalibur posts / threads are in the Classic Roadsters II sub-forum.
