John's new adventure...............

Knows the right touch's and details where many do not.......
Best to your new adventure John!

Add:
If you have been thinking about building that dream you have always wanted and do not have the time nor patience to complete the task I am currently offering the chance for you to realize your dream come true. I can provide you with a restoration with an eye for that 100 % correct concourse restoration of an original CSX2000 or CSX3000 series Shelby Cobra or build that Shelby Continuation Series (4000, 6000, 7000 or 8000) in alloy or glass, Kirkham Motorsport or Superformance into a nuts and bolts correct example of the hugely expensive original and everything in between. Please feel free to forward me a message regarding what you have in mind and I would be happy to discuss it with you. I specialize in knowing original 289 Cobras and 289 Competition (USRRC & FIA) Cobras and reproduce many parts for these vehicles to concourse standards (please see my other ebay adds regarding parts I have available, original & reproduction). I also provide a pre-inspection service for those looking to purchase an original 1960s Cobra or for those interested in pursuing the vehicles outlined above. Original Cobra parts bought, sold and traded.

Looking to Build That Shelby Continuation Cobra Kirkham or Superformance Cobras | eBay

I assume he means "concours" and not the common area at the mall "concourse"

Yes that is what he meant. Just a typo. John has been in this game for many many years, and manufactures only QUALITY and accurate parts. You would be hard pressed to tell the difference from original.
Good luck Mr Bessey,

John O

Good luck, we need more high quality builds and builders. There is neverending supply of "wannabes" so if Ned is happy, so are we.

Default Strange day

This is just to weird. An hour after I read the original post and checked the E-bay listings I went to get a hair cut at a new place. We started talking about cars and her brother being really into Cobra's, even showed me a bunch of pics of his car. John nice car by the way and it was your sister in Az. that cut my hair. Dan
