Your blog reminds me so much of my first mustang when I was 16. It was a 77' Mustang II. White with blue stripes. What a piece of **** Worked on it all the time. Finally gave up when the battery fell through the wheelwell and the drivers seat fell through the floor.....lol.

Keep up the good work.

Wow, I never thought I'd actually say this, but I'm starting to like the Cobra II...GUH! NO! ARGH!
Nice work! Keep at it- your efforts could produce a museum piece down the road!
