Well guess what happened today!

4 years and 11 days since the body shell for my scratch built cobra was dropped off at my house this finally happened, now it was not without issues, coolant and oil leaks to deal with but hey it runs.

Well guys' I did it fixed the oil leak, routed the coolant overflow differently and changed out the clutch master/slave. Ran the car to temp and the t-stat opened, but I forgot to close the overflow drain so we spilled more coolant on the floor. I found some more wire issues. But I stillTOOK IT FOR A SPIN :mf_w00t1:

Now for the bad news fan relay power supply needs to be rerouted and my speedo is not working, it has good power. I think the signal is messed up, the sender is from the 03 t-3650 will that work with the autometer speedo or do I need the adapter.

P.S. Thanks to Jerry for coming down in his car and keeping me sane while I did this.
