I really miss her. The only car I have ever owned; that I truely loved. Ive put the RT almost back to stock, and sold most of the shit already. Ive been luring for a few weeks now and Im thinking really hard about grabbing another Cobra.
Bryan, I have your pads still. PM me your addy (once again ) And Ill get them out if you still need them. Its been so long since I promised you then, but life has been hectic. Ive had another kid (two now), and recently lost a pregnancy.
Great to still see a lot of you guys are still active members, with huge signautres! If only I woulda kept my baby; Id be right there with you guys.

Looks great. Did you cover the interior sail panels with Suede?
Also, what is your suspension made up of?
Yes I red did the headliner and pillar posts in ultra suede. I used a heat gun and some plastice filler and removed the rear seat belt holes. I still need to cut out the sub holes and remake the rear side panels so everything flows together. Here's a pic of the panel out of the car.

What did you wrap the wiring harness in and where did you move the main harness to that runs under the pinchweld on the firewall? How did you get your throttle cable to fit like that, did you shorten it? Where's the cruise control cable, did you remove it?
Please, tell me some of the steps you took to get the bay looking this nice.
Really clean looking engine bay! I'm jelous.

Cruise gone, who wants to let the computer drive.
That is the original throttle cable.
Ditched lots of unnecessary brackets, harness.......example: the power steering resovoir bracket. Was able to chop off 3/4 of that thing that was not supporting anything.
I took the harness out, ditched the split loom tube and rewrapped it with Mercedes cloth harness tape (I work as a Benz auto tec). It's stronger, more abrasion resistant and flexible. You can get similar tape from the Eastwood Company. In the process of rewrapping the harness I removed the extra wiring. I made the left and right halfs join in the back below the passenger side fuel rail. There was enough extra slack in the factory harness after rewrapping to just shove the bulkhead connector that sits in the corner in the fender under the A/C accumulator. I was kind of forced to come up with this becauce of the Aero Motive fuel regulator now lives there.
great car, do you have a dry sump on it. what size try you got 315's. thats what i have but dont look nearly that big. but anyways look at you now 7 post and .01 per day. lol just giving you a hard time, keep up the work and i am glad to see some one that drives there car.(paint chips dont lie)
Looking good. With a bit of wiggling, you can route the wire harness that comes out of the fender by the air box completly in the fender. Then only the necessary wires need be visible like the air mass wires. Rewrap the harness that passes along the power steering resovoir and you can then tuck it down behind the bracket and secure with zip ties. Rewrap the injector harness and tuck it under the fuel rail and secure with zip ties.
