Congratulations John Shelton
Proud new owner of a guardsman blue and Wimbledon white cobra, HMS #038. Vintage 15" wheels and Eagle GT II tires. Pipes yet to be determined but I think he knows what heart will drive this beast.
I am proud for you John. At last your dream comes true.
Jay

Thanks for the well wishes,
I owe alot to you all...
to Kristen for so many outings in Pepe and for the feeling of family,
to Jim and Steve for sharing the difference of their cars' on so many occassions, the dichotomy between the little red car and the now fully restored car in Heath is something that all should experience,
to Richard and Nathan for keeping my interest in Hurricane alive and well,
to John D for my first cobra ride and my first snake bite,
to Larry for breaking the monotony of all of the blue ROADSTERS,
to Miles for helping me choose the best wax and clear coat polish,
to John R for his trust in and introductions to Rob and Keith,
to Jim W for his long ago suggestion to go with a rolling chassis,
to Alan and Colleen as an undiluted source of Ford racing enthusiasm,
to Sammy and his unbridled investment in his dream - he will make it to the finish line first, unless those daily scratch offs and pick 5's really start kicking in,
to Mike and Rich in Lee's Summit,
to Dean Lampe,
to Gary, Matt, Don, Fred, and all of you others,
to Vicki for living with and helping me through this crisis,
Lastly, to Jay (Dear Mr. Fantasy) for his generosity, time, patience, and advice, for his sharp eye, for his mentoring, and for all of his work with Mike and Rich.
Current opinion is that it will be powered by a 351w with a stroker mod to 408.

The 408 sounds like a great choice. Small Block point of reference here, but those engines scream and that motor makes more power than you can put to the ground anyway.
If you're getting one of those hot Keith Craft 570hp 408's, then I already have motor-envy!
If indeed mine's thrown a rod, I might be headed that direction.
