Re: Paint on 3353.
Well I hope it's not too long before showtime but the rest depends on me and I tend to be slow. Maybe late Spring...
The green car is beautifully restored. I couldn't tell on CCC what the car needed but it looked pretty good although it certainly looks better now. With current resto prices I too wonder if the owner would have come out better selling as is. Good purchase!

Re: Paint on 3353.
If we keep on him we might be able to get him to have it done in time for MCACN..But we would really need to keep on him.

Re: Paint on 3353.
Bill, I've been reconditioning some of the pieces. Hope to post some pics soon. Waiting on some small bits that have slowed the process.

Re: Paint on 3353.
The late series 3300 cars were the only Cobras to get the 31 spline output shaft trans. The earlier cars got the hybrid 28 spline trans. The 010180 is out of my car and the 010184 is from 3346 which is probably the best low mile original out there. Never restored. These are the original inspection marks on both units.

Re: Paint on 3353.
Some odds and ends here. Decided my wiring harness is a little tired so I ordered a new one which I won't get until July. Thought my piston rings were on the way but are no longer in production so custom rings have to be ordered. In the mean time trying to get a lot of little things done but very slow going at this point. The original brake pads could have been reused. The two piston pads had practically no wear. The single piston pads had almost all of the wear at all 4 corners. Those shiny clamps are the original that we saved since they are no longer produced. They looked pretty rough when removed but cleaned up pretty good. They have a kind of tin plating that had corrosion but most came off. Calipers got new pistons.
