Hope the engine is good after waiting seven months! I already have plans to change the gold powdercoat for something different. lol The delay was my fault. A few days before I dropped the parts off the guys took on a full restoration - if I would've scheduled the work in properly then there wouldn't have been a delay. The engine ran like a dream on the dyno. Turbo cams aren't too lumpy so it's super smooth and revs really nicely.

I started off being very conservative with everything being painted or bought in plain black. Initially it was supposed to be my "OEM+ approach". Somewhere along the line mission creep came into play. Before I knew it there was an engine poking out of the hood. Tha was the end of being subtle. May as well paint the car neon yellow now

Yeah I love a Cobra. Although... I think I'd actually prefer a Caterham now. Sacrifice the soundtrack to have something tiny and easy to throw about.

So... I've had a few challenges, but never let go of the G-Ltd. Still not finished, but hopefully I'll be working on the car again in the new year.
