A friend stopped by today to pick up my alignment tools and he brought over something to share. Paul2STL is now done with his and I had to oblige with taking my car out for a photo shoot even though there is still snow on the ground. Its going to be a fun summer as I can now count about 10 Cobras in the area to go have fun with...

Nice video. Lots of cool editing there. I like it. And I'm not the only one that goes to Costco for gas. Always makes for some interesting conversations. Although maybe not so much now.

GoDadGo Jeff Miller painted it Nissan Plasma Red. I couldn't find a red, red I liked and he pulled it right out of a hat. Can't wait to see yours all done up! I have another project I will be starting soon and it has to have red on it too.

Reds are definitely tough to pick for some strange reason.
I'm going to have them pull that chip to compare it to the Dodge Torred before we shoot The Red Bone Roadster.

Here is another video of a guy that built a different kind of kit. I'll be starting on mine soon. There are two Kitfoxes in this along with a Highlander kit plane. Great inspiration to finish and go do these adventures. Jim https://youtu.be/ioBEYYVir00

Let's just say I have a while before the new engine gets in. My plan is to go kart with the engine I got running while setting up the AEM Infinity. Then I'll build up the Voodoo one.
