    Cobra ReFinished - Thanks Wayne Presley!

    Our MKII was completed back in 2003 by my father and I and lots of parts upgraded over time (norm stuff - Smeding Dart 427W, TKO600, Levy 5 link.) It was time to be repainted with a color change from Red and long list of items to be changed / upgraded / corrected with the body off and I told my brother that I should be able to get all the things I want done at the rate I am going in about 30 years. With that in mind and spousal approval, I am fortunate to be in Wayne Presley's vicinity.

    Wayne Huge Thank You! and I think I shocked my father, but he really likes it

    This is the abbreviated list -
    New FFR Engine harness and Chassis Wiring harness
    Replace old braided Fuel lines, switch to aftermarket internal pump and new tank, Russ Thompson throttle pedal
    New Brake hard lines from all the brake mods
    Body off paint job - color Viking Blue with Wimbledon white stripes
    FFR Polished Stainless Bumper Kit
    Install Tonneau cover
    315 Mod
    New black Carpeting in **** pit with new belts and trunk
    Dash recovered, Herb's door panels, Dreamcar Mirrors, install low back seats and different roll bar
    Alignment and cross weight
    Switch to Megasquirt Pnp2 to with full dyno tune (way fast, Wayne made me tap out)
