Which year?

[Roger King]

2023?

I'm still waiting for the stage where you start beating your own aluminium bodyshell!
An incredible project, and I raise my metaphorical hat to you. Keep at it!

To give the steering more stiffness I made a bracket with a rosejoint for the shaft.

The Coventry Motors Cobra had a unique center mirror in 1963. Nobody could answer me what typ it was or where it came from in 1963. So I studied my old pictures again and again and found out that ATTENTION!!! a Corvette mirror from 1962 was used and that a special bracket was made for. Even with the wrong engine in my Cobra I'm sometimes a bit finicky with some parts

Some more pics

[Migge]

That will do

[Paul Blore]

That looks really good.

Looking at the pictures seems to suggest the mirror is the other way up i.e. with the mount offset to the bottom in order to raise the mirror higher. However, looking again, the top black & white picture has it the same way as you have it.

So when will it be finished?

[Migge]

Thanks Paul. I've named so many years and was always wrong but 2014 seems realistic.
