Been working on the car along with everything else. Picked up Accufab TB, timing cover, and 03-04 Cobra Fuel Hat. I will be dropping a bunch off to be sand blasted in the next few days.

The land of commies and socialists!
Nice build. When you finally get your car painted please post some good shots of your hood. I have the same one and honestly have been fighting with the decision since I am not sure I'll like it when its painted. Pics on the internet of that hood with any style OEM bumper are very lacking.

One big piece of advice is get the car DONE before your first child is born.

Saleen hood is gone, getting a 95 Cobra R Hood for the car. I was going to do a Saleen Clone but decided to change.

Got a 99-01 Cobra bumper and Cervivis 95 Style Cobra R Hood for the car.

Currently removing the factory sound deadener and will be putting new stuff down.

I guess you can say things are getting pretty serious.

Almost time to sand, prime, paint, then put new sound and thermal material in.

I have finished removing the stock sound deadening in the convertible and my back hates me for it. Sanding can wait til morning. For now this is how I celebrate a small accomplishment.

I picked up a 3" Wire Wheel and 3" Wire Cup Brush to help with prepping the interior for a fresh coat of primer and paint.

Looking good man!

Thank you!

About finished with the thermal/acoustic mat installation but scissors decided they had enough last night and I received two pages from work that I had to attend to.

Hopefully I will be test fitting carpet tonight.

Sound deadening and thermal/acoustic mat is installed. I have a few small spots to get but I can push forward. I zip-tied the RCA cables to make it a bit cleaner. Time to start installing the new carpeting.
