Thats why I'm using a lakewood scatter shield. A trans blanket would probably be a fairly good idea as well.

Life on the southern border?

I'm looking for an experienced 7 nose. It can be the one that got pranged and has been sitting in the corner, long as most of the larger pieces are still around. Anything I use will have to be cut into 4 pieces to make room for a Mustang radiator anyhow. Cost is the object.

Something I appreciated being more familiar with the Cobra croud. The lack of the petty bickering about mine is an original whereas the continuation cars are not and the replicas, locost, are slightly better than a dune buggy. Get on about any Cobra forum and you will see what I mean. A hearty well done to Al, Mazda and all the others involved , Yall did a great job.

X2 A great time was had and great thanks and job well done to all involved. Thanks Jim Hankins

Prefferably at least slightly less lost as I.

I would probably be interested as long as no one would be too offended at the prospect of either a Cobra (93 Mustang) or Jeep joining. You would be coming my direcrtion so would rather catch up in route ranter than drive up to Hburg and back down.

Any Deman SR7 Builders? http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=69366

That is true in most instances but it would be too easy for a hacker to watch and provide thier own pages to collect info.

I would be glad to though there would probably be copyright problems.

So instead of doing the right thing here is the response to making a donation and repeated requests to do take action here is Chrises action. "You are banned. You may not view the forums, post, make new topics, send U2U's or edit your posts.;"

There seems to be problem with ChrisW the forum admin setting the switch to eliminate the Nag screen. Many, myself included have made payments months ago with no response to either emails or U2Us. If it wasn't such a good forum for all things 7 it wouldn't be worth the bother. Use caution going thru the contribution screen since it would be easy for a hacker to get your Paypal info, NOT GOOD. http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=66601&contribmessage=none http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=67546

VA has finnaly gotten smart and will as of 7/1/7 register component cars as the year and model they most represent and the smog and equipment follow that car. How many cops or Inspectors have any idea what equipment was supposed to be on a '58 Lotus Seven?? I plan on registring as a '58 Lotus Seven (replica) and will carry a copy of the IMP documentation with me http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1958-LOTUS-SEVEN-SERIES-1-ORIGINAL-IMP-BROCHURE-58-60_W0QQitemZ320124498179

In SF years ago got stopped for noisy Carb. The cop thought he was hearing the exhaust but no. The car was an Alfa Guiletta with a 1300 with Webbers and only half the air cleaner. suggested he listen again that far as I knew there wasn't anything on the books about noisy carb.

You have way more nerve than I being wiling to drive a LISS in Cincinnati traffic the way THOSE people drive. I've been debating the legality or lack thereof of mounting an anti collision strobe like used on the top of a lot of busses to improve visability a bit. A noisy exhaust would certianly not hurt.

Subject: Social Security Changes for 2008! Please send this on to as many people as you can.. You've got to read this all the way through to the bottom. ? I HEREWITH FIRMLY STATE THAT I WILL NOT VOTE FOR ANY POLITICIAN, REGARDLESS OF THE OTHER ISSUES, IF HE DOES NOT SPONSOR AND SUPPORT THE FOLLOWING LEGISLATION. THAT INCLUDES EVERYONE STANDING FOR ELECTION IN 2008. LET US SHOW OUR LEADERS IN WASHINGTON "PEOPLE POWER" AND THE POWER OF THE INTERNET. ?LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE WITH ME ON THIS BY FORWARDING TO EVERYONE IN YOUR ADDRESS BOOK. ? IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU ARE REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT ! KEEP IT GOING!!!! 2008 Election Issue !! GET A BILL STARTED TO PLACE ALL POLITICIANS ON SOC. SEC. This must be an issue in "2008" Please! Keep it going. ---------------------------------- SOCIAL SECURITY: (This is worth reading. It is short and to the point.) Perhaps we are asking the wrong questions during election years. Our Senators and Congresswomen do not pay into Social Security and, of course, they do not collect from it. You see, Social Security benefits were not suitable for persons of their rare elevation in society . They felt they should have a special plan for themselves. So, many years ago they voted in their own benefit plan. In more recent years, no congressperson has felt the need to change it. After all, it is a great plan. For all practical purposes their plan works like this: When they retire, they continue to draw the same pay until they die. Except it may increase from time to time for cost of living adjustments.. For example, Senator Byrd and Congressman White and their wives may expect to draw $7,800,000.00 (that's Seven Million, Eight-Hundred Thousand Dollars), with their wives drawing $275, 000.00 during the last years of their lives. This is calculated on an average life span for each of those two Dignitaries. Younger Dignitaries who retire at an early age, will receive much more during the rest of their lives. Their cost for this excellent plan is $0.00 . NADA..! ZILCH... This little perk they voted for themselves is free to them. You and I pick up the tab for this plan . The funds for this fine retirement plan come directly from the General Funds; " OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK "! From our own Social Security Plan, which you and I pay (or have paid) into, every payday until we retire (which amount is matched by our employer). We can expect to get an average of $1,000 per month after retirement. Or, in other words, we would have to collect our average of $1,000 monthly benefits for 68 years and one (1) month to equal Senator! Bill Bradley's benefits! Social Security could be very good if only one small change were made. That change would be to: Jerk the Golden Fleece Retirement Plan from under the Senators and Congressmen. Put them into the Social Security plan with the rest of us Then sit back..... And see how fast they would fix it. If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and maybe good changes will evolve. How many people CAN you send this to? Better yet...... How many people WILL you send this to ? I would like to add to this that ALL government employees Fed/State/Local be included and thier health care be medicare. All setaside funds for the current programs for those Govt employees that are enrolled in the NEW SS be rolled into the SS fund.

Second

The advantage of a 25 year old car.

From what I have read on Capitol Cobra Forum the laws in MD almost rewquire that you get a car with an old title and update. Bet if felt good to take it up and down the street under it's own power. The relative advantage/disadvantage of ackerman other that at very slow speeds is greatly contested. Threads I've reat on C-C seem to indicate the need even on a track car. FWIW the Fox Mustang has either none or very little ackerman and no caster. These are amont the first things that need to be fixed on that car when unscrewing the front suspension. IIRC you can add ackerman by sinking the rack back toward the axle centerline.
