What that means...not sure, but logistics are difficult now. With the garage full and one car having to stay outside now.....I dont' have a place for it. Unless I kept it at the rent house in the shed....then I wouldn't get to mess with it.

May still get it to have it when I DO get a place to work on it.

But just out of curiousity....how much is yours? Running?

Prolly ask about 7k. Runs good, gets some vibration in the upper rpms but I believe that's the fan clutch engaging

True.

Even with the Cobra replica's that I really would love to own (Superformance has a shop near the house)...I can't stand most of them with the top up...just doesn't look right at all.
