Is this polishing process the same process you use to polish the Aluminum cobras?

We don't have a complete set of dies yet for the Coupe--but we are closing in on finishing it. We should be done with them this spring.

We use Pferd files. They are fantastic. We won't use any other file. We use the 9 TPI (tooth per inch) files.

The straightening and polishing process is identical to how we make our aluminum KMS 427 S/C cars. The same process could be used on the unfinished body/chassis. In fact, that is exactly what we do here.

Happy to answer any questions,

David
