Very tired today, not because I did anything. Had very little sleep. Went up to carlisle Saturday. Met Maurice's wife and son. Lee from Sterling Replicas. Tracy and his wife from Charlottsville, Va. Glen from Carlise,and Trevor Gardner From Md. Very nice people. Of course Maurice was there.He's a nice guy too!:DNot very many venders or people Sat. Probably due to Hershey's big hot rod show. Sunday was busier. Got car in the trailer and on the road by 12:30. Home in three hours and here are a few pics.
Thanks again to the Weavers.

Yeah he does - you can't smack that grin off with a 2x4 for weeks/mo/yrs. Very nice looking car - love the color [^]

Awesome Tony! That gel-coat the Weavers do is indeed very awesome, and it'll look even more stunning in it's final black coat!

Tony,

Your day finally came live it up, I agree with Clay about the gel coat had to look twice in the pictures.

Ditto Tony. Its a real fooler, details like the seams on the front fenders, lack of oil cooler hoses, wiper blades and a light front end were the only give aways. When I show people my build book on Lil' Cobra the first few photos are the car when I picked it up. Most people are a little confused since it looks done!! Have fun with the build it is great!

Looking good! I bet a picture of you in the car looks just like the expression on the kids face!

I would have loved to gone to Carlisle. My 'partner in crime';), Bill Dyer did and had a great time! Although Bill was there to work talking to all the Vendors and Manufacturers he could find for the London Cobra Show. Amazing how hard people will work for $0!

People ask if it has been painted already. It won't be a very dramatic change when it does. Except when I can fire that engine up and wake up all the Nieghbors.:D:D:D:D

Thank you for your support:D

I will keep you posted on the build and no doubt, ask you all questions.[8D]
