I guess I'm all set now. Just a waiting game at this point.

Got a replacement (aluminum) diff housing, FRPP 4.10 gear set that's being sent off to Innovators West for a lightening and REM polishing job, another Torsen T2R diff, and eventually they'll all work their way to my builder in FL. And then onward to the freight forwarder so I can pick them up free of import duty at Frankfurt. Maybe two or three months at most and it's back on the road just in time for early spring.

Fucking cars, man. Fucking cars.

I almost, key word 'almost', painted my Cobra with it. Just couldn't think about all the crap I'd get with that paint. Too much orange/yellow flop for me. Looks good on some cars. Thankfully I came to my senses, and my wifes utmost disapproval. :oops:

Received my first box of many from LMR.
Replaced the trunk struts and license plate lights.
Installed hood struts and removed the prop rod.
Finally replaced the broken hood release cable, that was a lot harder than I thought it would be.

Maybe start a build thread, showing off your project and work progress. We love projects and pictures!

Little things like removing the hood prop rod for struts make life much better. I grew to hate that thing always being in the way and having to work around it.
