Default Just how big are J-Cups anyway?

After a brief pit stop GYM J CUPS is back in the race.

Jim Jacobs is the proud new owner of a freshly completed FFR Daytona Coupe, delivered this afternoon, courtesy of Mr. Fantasy. His Ford Racing 392 powered Coupe is a nice follow up to his Unique 289 of days gone by.

Welcome back to the game, Jim, and thanks for the ride today.

I look forward to cruising to meets together again real soon, like the old days.

John

I thought J Cups were standard in Texas.

Everything is bigger in Texas, right???

Thanks John/Guys - It was great having you there to share the delivery. I've missed my Cobra friends and not being part of the action for the last couple of years. My Initial thought is the Coupe has feel that is "A LOT" different than the FIA had. I'm looking forward to learning her personality and see what she can do.

I want to again thank Jay Nordstrom for rebuilding this car for me and look forward to many miles and smiles.

Jim/GYM

10-4, I couldn't agree more !!

What say you Mr J CUPS?
Call the location for Saturday the 14th and we will be there.

All should be aware that Mr J CUPS is an extreme east-sider, so meeting y'all half way means Mesquite or North Garland at best.

Jim, Steve couldn't be with us yesterday because he was at Indianapolis with his GT350C.

More pictures can be found on YouTube

John out.

John Shelton - I just watched the You Yube you made and it is awesome, what a talent you have.
I am very blessed to have my Cobra family friends everywhere, thanks again for all of the great comments.

I'm all for a celebration get together but this Saturday is a problem. After giving the Coupe a good initial shake down there are a couple of items that need to be tweaked. Jay and his side kick Chris are going to come out Saturday to take care of them. I would like to request a get together maybe Saturday Week (21st)?

However, if you want to get your car out for a drive this Saturday, feel free to come by my house. We may need another TIT (J Cup) back together again.

Wow, I didn't realize Jay did house calls! I'm gonna buy all my Cobras from him now

Jim, Sat 21st we'll be attending the annual Shelby Reunion at Legacy Bank in Plano. See the earlier post here. Do plan on driving up for that! It is always a blast and your car will probably be the only Daytona present! You will be the Belle of the Ball

Oops, guess I was caught up in my deal and didn't think about the Legacy Meet. That would be a GREAT event to attend and I will plan on meeting you guys there.
