Bill, your car looks really great   , and your correct with the body on...it does feel more like a real car as compared to driving it as a go-kart.  
Just wait until its painted and all done and you get a few hundred miles on it, when you get out of it after a long drive you'll say "Damm did I actually build this fine thing?"   .

On a side note I like your gas cap installation, lowering it is a good idea. Something that I did on mine that has worked out well, is adding a 3/8" steel drain tube through the fuel well and attaching a hose that extends to the bottom of the car and out to the road.  Two or three times I over filled my car and the gas ran down the tube preventing it from splashing over the fender.

Anyway, best of luck, Bill

It's been a while since i updated but the work continues on the cobra.  Here is where she sits right now.

Here is one of the trunk prop on.  I may go with a gas strut back here, but for now, this works pretty good.

I was getting a lot of heat up through the tunnel, so i figure it was time to actually put the plate and the boot on.

Need this to see if "the man" is behind me.

Need this to see if "the man" is beside me.  Mirror placements subject to change still.

Lots of heat and road debris coming in from the sides, so i buttoned it up and it is alot better.  Had to hit the easy button a few times installing these.

The roll bar finally went on with some sanding of the outside and inside of the tubes and a bit of grease.  Unfortunately i will have to have it re-powder coated due to a misguided attempt at putting it on a few weeks ago.  One of a couple of things i have screwed up along the way.  But all in all, it has been relatively minor stuff.

I think i'll use Miller.  I'm thinking a blue with white stripes for now.

Can I ask where you got the black thermal tubing for your brake lines?
