    Nope, both quarters still have the original VIN tags on them.

    What's up with the body lines not matching up on the door?
    Door pins are sagging and I am reasonably sure that the drivers door has been changed.

    Also reasonably sure that it's been hit in the passenger quarter since the trunk doesn't line up properly, nor does the B pillar trim. I know that the passenger side quarter panel and door has been painted since it didn't peel and I found bondo on the passenger door.

    Well, I finally got a week off work. This was my first time fully painting a car. Didn't turn out completely the way I wanted it to, but hey, learn by doing and it's way better than when I started.

    I just put new pads on the front. Thanks for the offer though.

    Got the clutch in and the new tires mounted this weekend. I went with a sachs clutch from oriellys since I did it on the spur of the moment and I couldn't get a better one over the weekend. It came with an added bonus, the pedal effort is about 50% easier from what was in it, but it's still gripping just fine. I am sure if I had a power adder, it would start slipping, but it works fine for stock. Makes driving in traffic a shit ton easier.

    Got the clutch installed today. Everyone is back ordered on the clutch fork, so I went ahead and reused the old fork. The break to the retaining tab wasn't recent, so I figured that it would be OK. Going tomorrow to get the tires mounted and balanced, so I should be on the road by tomorrow night.

    Never seen white paint in such terrible shape, sometime you have to wonder who would own a cobra and just neglect it to that point
    The ford white had a bad habit of peeling in those years. I see it all the time on F150's.
