    It's Almost a Car

    Thanks to the help of 7 Cobra owners in the Atlanta area I got the body back on the frame. It was really easy with one at each wheel and one in the front. The results

    Nice! You guys are killing me. Nobody can post any more "painted pics" until I get mine back from the paint shop. )-:
    Car looks great! When putting the body back on the frame for the last time did you put anything between the body and frame other than the nylon type cord Unique had on it?

    Brent the only thing I added was a swimming pool full of sweat. I think I may have to mess with the body a bit as the rollbar doesn't seem to want to go back over the anchor post. Anybody got any ideas on final adjustment (an easy one please) of the body/frame relationship. Tonight is bleed the brakes and clutch with this fancy pressure bleeder I borrowed.

    Forget the request for tips - I got the body aligned and the roll bar back inplace.
