My markIV was delivered last week,base kit, so I have to get busy taking my mustang apart. Hope to start on the MarkIV this spring when weather get better. I was surprised that my shoulder /arm rubbed against the door since I'm not a big guy, will have to consider cutting them so there is room for my arm. Wondering if there is an active Cobra club in Minnesota.

I'll get some pics for u soon. It was so cold when stewart trans. delivered it that the lift wouldn't work, the driver "Don" had to go to IA to get it fixed, and came back 2 days later. It was still below zero and the lift hardly worked but we did finally get it off the truck. Don by the way is a great guy.

Congrats on the arrival of your kit! You're one step in front of me. I put the order in for my MK4 and will take delivery sometime in April. I am in Hugo, MN and there are two other guys up my way who have FF MK4's. One is done, the other is nearing completion (should be driving by April). There is no club that I know of so I would say it would be great if we formed some sort of group to help each other with different phases of the build as well as cruising once we are done. We definitely need to get an active Cobra club going here in the cities. Shoot me a PM!

Congrats on your delivery. I would be lying if I said I wasn't jealous. I just ordered my kit but have nothing physically to speak of. I am looking at an April delivery and would like to know if there is a group willing to help with any local issues. I am planning a coyote build with the new IRS and always appreciate input, especially from those who have done this before.

I am not very big 5'10" 195lbs & the cockpit is tight. In any car I normally drive with my arm on the window ledge or arm rest. In the Cobra I just rest my arm on top of the door. Bad planning caused me to mount a spring loaded self cancelling turn signal switch to far left on the dash. Need to bring my arm inside to set the blinker. Can keep my arm inside if I need to but its way more comfortable resting on the door.

I'm glad u mentioned the turn signal because i'm planning on using the russ thompson turn signal, will plan on putting it on right side of wheel.
