Hey FF folks, i picked up my first cobra in sept 2013, unfinished project of a gentleman who started it in 1992. 15 years ago i found myself on the factory five email and mailing list and have been honing my mechanical skills and working my way up to getting into a nice cobra kit. It just so happened that i came across this car in a trade and fulfilled the dream, so to speak. It is not a ff car but that's not to say my next one won't be. Here is a pic the day i got it home. I've joined the local tucson cobra club, but have yet to go out for a spin with them. I have a long list of 'to do's' for the car before i hit the road. Hope to collect and share great build info.. and hope you don't hold my LA exotic car against me here on this forum.. I figured since the dream started with factory fives progressive marketing and helpful website, i'd also be welcome here on the forum.
Thanks
Fred

PS the wheels on the car are just a joke, i set them up next to it to show how silly they look, even though i got them with the car. (porche 20" wheels)

Welcome to the forum. I agree that those wheels have to go. Enjoy your project.
