Roadster #9693 is Graduated. And it's a blast to play with!
It's dusty in this pic (I don't want to wash it just out of paint), but the paintwork by Mike Bowen is exceptional and turn around was just 5 weeks from drop off, 6 until I got it back home! ...can't feel the stripes or find any "boogers" in the finish.
Engine and driveline by Mike Forte'. 347 Dart block, Sniper EFI, 420/410 HP/ftlbs with 87-octane fuel, TKO-600, Sniper EFI, Pertronix-II Ignition, Evans coolant
Paint and Body by Mike Bowen of Spotlight in Georgia. Indigo blue pearl with red and black stripes.
Transportation/hauling by Cobra owner and builder, Carl Emery.
Mods include: EStopp E-brake, IRS, Heater, Modified Glove Box, Fuel Pressure Gauge, Drop trunk mod, RT Turn Signal Mod with IDIDIT controller for brights on the stick, Forte's throttle linkage, RT Cubby Mod, RT Fan Shroud & radiator mount, cooling fan "on" light, fuel pump "on" light, all LED Lighting, 18" wheels with MT's (for the moment.), dash center support/panel, battery forward kit, and more. The seats are by Cobra Seats with removable head rests, 2"-5-point belts/harnesses with cam-lock release, Wilwood Brakes, anti-sway front and rear, IRS, no wipers, Tach and Speedo are reversed for visibility with leather steering wheel, reverse/back-up lights. After the paint cures in a few more weeks, it's off to get a ceramic finish. I still have a couple switches/knobs to blackout and will eventually add a cruise control. But for now, I'm just enjoying it during some real road testing and shakedown.
