Well, the husk of the '98 Cobra was hauled off this week & I've now shifted to assembly from parts tear-down & parts ordering.
I still haven't figured out the CVs (lots of opinions on those), but there's not much left on the parts front I'll need.
I'm going to fit the rear suspension to make any mods I'll need for my 315's. I'm also going to work on fitting the motor & trans over the next week with a goal of having everything at the powder coaters by the end of July. Beyond that the big obsticales will be the footbox mods and the steering shaft. Once I'm past all that, it should be a simple build (!).
Yes, that is indeed a mod-motor! I'm not the first to do it, but none of the other guys frequent the boards so this will be the first play-by-play. Stay tuned.
