Alright, been awhile. Have a patent bar on March 1st, the Texas Bar in July, and final exams coming up in May. Plus there is the job search.
The car pretty much sat.. I drove it a couple times, but I started it up last week and heard the sounds of a small child wailing on a gutter pipe with a 2x4. So.. I took the blower belt off and it shut up. As expected, the useed blower seems to need a rebuild.
So, that's where I'm at. I sent it off the Stegeimeier for a full port and polish, it should look nice.
Then I finished (half-ass) the body man's job on my hood. He left the underside nasty splotchy black and raw fiberglass. I went to autozone and shot it with some color matching spray cans. Not the best job, but it's getting better. When I reinstall the blower I'll sand off some imperfections and touch it up. It will shine more when I buff the clear coat.
Then, in anticipation of the polished blower, I cleaned and polished everything I could find.
Finally, I went over the car with the orbital buffer. Wash --> Clay --> SSR1 on a polishing pad --> EX-P on a finishing pad.
The Cobra has been left at my parents house in anticipation of the move. Not to mention, it needs a transmission and likely a motor re-freshing. No point in beating it up out here for the last few months I live in Oklahoma. The GT has become a far nicer car TBH.
Here it is at the re-tune a couple months ago.
