    Spyder in the house!!!

    Got a FFR Spyder in the shop for some work yesterday! First time working on a Spyder for me.

    You're Killing Me Smalls!

    First, you work on a Real Cobra, and now this.
    I begged the folks at Factory Five to build me a Spyder before ordering the MK-4.
    A car that never existed could be stuffed with any driveline desired with no backlash from the Ford Fans.
    Make sure it has wider wheels on the rear when you're done.
    Here's where you can find them:

    Take Care Henry!

    Thanks guys!

    Dave, floor looks good until you drop something! I’ve got another Cobra that’s at the tuner right now and one on the way at the end of the month. The red one is about 99 44/100’s finished. The Coupe and Blue Roadster are mine. I do like to keep busy.

    I don't know if you remember my garage in Bolton but I had the same epoxy finish with the speckles. Held up great but every time I dropped a small part it was impossible to find on the floor. New garage went without the speckles and I can actually find dropped items. (sometimes.)

    Henry,

    Is the Spyder still under your care?
    The next time you see Mr. Smith, please share with him this little video from Jay Leno and remind him to bring back the Spyder.

    Hope you and all of your projects are doing well.
    We also hope to hoist a brew or two with you at Cruising The Coast.

    Steve

    If the Mr. Smith you're referring to is Dave it ain't gonna' happen Steve. That wasn't his baby and did not have his blessings.

    I bet that 10mm socket still knows how to hide....
