Pictures!
Still a problem getting them to this point!
The car.... eeez lookin' guud!
As I mentioned in a PM too I'm almost re-doing things and changing some others since I have the extra time.
Maybe I can send you some via e-mail.
If you don't have your new "Shelby" tool box in your truck-bring it with you!
Was thinking about putting in the 5th roll bar tube??? 
But since no time to get it powder coated guess it can wait until I talk you into it-Maybe next winter when we put in the SUPER CHARGER! 
Now thats a relatively cheap 100 plus real HP!

Well DV.... I made it home! Didn't hit any deer  Did hit a lot of rain in SW Michigan all the way to SE Illinois. Man! I love my F150  Pulled the trailer with the car at 75+ and it didn't even feel like the trailer was back there.
I'll get some gas first thing in the morning and see if that why the witch (formally known as the queen) didn't fire up in the shop. If that the case, guess I'll take a crack at resetting the fuel gauge.
Thanks for the late nights the last couple of weeks!!! Take a break, you earned it!!! And I'll see what I can F@%! up in the next couple weeks finishing off the last little odds and ends. We definitely will have to redo the dash in the spring. All the switches on the left hand side will need to be relocated. Need more room for that fat left knee of mine

Congrats on getting her home capteddie. Don't worry, you will never be done
tinkering with it. I think that is half the fun - finding little things to do to
make it better. Of course driving is #1.

To both of you; well done! Nice to see another CRII hit the streets. I agree with Hi Cobra that it will never be done. You will have the satisfaction of some "wheel time" in between the tweaks.
Had a really nice Sunday yesterday. My wife went for a ride on her horse with her buddies and I went for a 3 hour ride on country roads on my "horse".  Try to send us some pics with you behind the wheel with a big smile. For the first week you will look in the garage to see it there and that alone will cause a big smile.

Thought:
Ya it became quite apparant that you were a wee bit tight in the cockpit. Since I have to pull the dash (In the Spring) to relocate the switches, how about a 1/2 moon type cut on the left side of the dash? Just a thought, match your knee and allow even better ergonomics for braking?
Before you do that please call Bakkers and order another piece of leather for the dash and also the padding if you want the padded look.
Pressure!? Now it's Spring 2010, CAN'T have a NEW Cobra or any cobra in the shop for a month getting modified in the spring time!
{I'm sure you have got to my half dozen PM's sent from 3:00 AM ON ?}
DV
PS George L. ---Yes!--- yours gets uncovered today! The new countdown has officially started. Cpt eddie and myself both thank you for your patience!

OK... Getting caught up after the road trip home late last night.
Well DV. The dash really needs to be reworked and I've found a few missed spots of undercoating  and un-buffed areas  . So I guess you'll get your 800/1000 wet sanding wish after all. (next spring-ish)
I'll see about fixing the fuel gauge this coming weekend. I also got in touch with my engine dyno guy. He is very confident he can get the engine dialed in and the AOD shifting issues fixed
Here's a few pictures to bring us up to date.
Almost cracked one of these open last night after the long drive home....
