I had my car up to recalibrate the airfuel meter and my OCD got the best of me. I washed and semi-detailed the underside. It still looks pretty good underneath for a 2003 (never in rain for 9 years).

Guys, I will go out on a limb and say this is one of the cleanest cobras in the country. I have known Brian for years, and he is no joke! His attention to detail is second to none.

His OCD makes it hard to be around him with my cobra. There is a unspoken level of perfectness, lol, that you have to have to hang with him.

Looks great bro, as usual!!

Who would detail the underside of their car? :smmon:


Looks clean. I see you still suffer from the leaking diff cover syndrome though.

And why did you go bolt in subframe connectors?

The diff cover had extra sealant on it. That black is rubber. I haven't seen direct leakage, but will look closer. What is the story with that?

The subframes were from the previous owner. At least they are a decent bolt through. I never got around to welding them in. Plus I was considering others.

Thanks.

Those paint chip specks on the left fuel tank strap are bugging me though. I will correct that tomorrow. Ha.

They all tend to leak due to the movement of the diff housing. It's just one of the downfalls of the stock IRS.

It's nice to see someone taking care of their ride! :rockon:
