Post a video, liked to hear it.

Hey Z, any interest in bringing your car down to Ocean City Md in May, cruising up and down coastal highway, plus an all Mustang car show on 64th street on Saturday May 18.


Looks like another snow/rain storm is heading our way again, just more salt on the roads...... :cussing:
It may be the month of May until I get cobra's out. :sleeping:

Thanks for the invite, Brett. Definitely interested; however, I'll be in San Diego on May 18. Let me know about future shows/cruises. Also, do you ever take yours to PA/NJ for shows/cruises? I participate in a fair number from May thru Sep.

Today I managed to un-bend alot of the bent fins on the AC condenser. I figured its best to do this now since the radiator is out. Im sure it wouldn't have a huge affect on anything, but the air should flow a little better in some places.
Aside of that, I also cleaned more parts off. Since all the accessories are off the front of the engine.
