pparaska Posted July 18, 2001 Share Posted July 18, 2001 Wow! That is Sweet! I bet the MG purists just about die when they see it - cool . I'd love to hear more about it - weight, weight distribution, chassis mods, brake and suspension mods. Welcome, you'll fit in here REAL well .

DavyZ Posted July 18, 2001 Share Posted July 18, 2001 Right, Pete...he's a nut, just like us... Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPMS Posted July 18, 2001 Share Posted July 18, 2001 Wow, Pete has competition! (and it only took Dave TWO years to get his running! ) That's an incredible machine, Dave! I love the way the rear fenders worked with the rest of the body. Everything just looks so... CHUNKY! Like it's ready to take names and kick some serious ass. I just hope my Z looks a third as malicious when I'm done... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike kZ Posted July 18, 2001 Share Posted July 18, 2001 Nice job smoothing out the body, after all that metal work! Looks mean. What part of the country are you from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two40MuscleZ Posted July 18, 2001 Share Posted July 18, 2001 Dave: Youve out done yourself. Sharp looking ride. Lots of effort on your part and it certainly shows. Have fun on the streets. Van Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted July 18, 2001 Share Posted July 18, 2001 With a name like Cobra Killer what's not to like? let's see some 1/4 mile times. Can you launch it without a ton of tire smoke? Are those rear fenders from a Karmen Ghia? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
