On My Bench - The Cosma Ray

Glad to hook you up, Ellis. Greg's Cosma Ray casting is outstanding.

As soon as I get past next weekend's GoodGuys show, I've got to get back to this buildup and finish it. The interior's nearly done, paint's done, chassis is done, and the car is virtually ready for final assembly. Sorry it got sidetracked by ~life~.

Guilty as charged ~ the project slowed to a halt ... or, I should say a temporary break.

It's been on hiatus too long ... time for the premiere of Season 2.

I'll get it revved up next week.

Thanks for your encouragement. Have a great holiday weekend ~ don't forget WHY we call it MEMORIAL Day!

God Bless those that have given all for their country!

:lol:

Danno, did you ever finish this build? I'm liking where it's going. And I learned quite a bit, such as what happened between the 1967 annual issue of the Corvette, and the Streaker Vette reissue in 1976, which, ironically, has no molded in exhaust system. Oddly, the chassis in all the subsequent reissues has now pivoting lower control arms, returning to the original 1964 style chassis. Two chassis inserts? Sounds to me like Round2 could still have the body bits and more to the Cosma Ray floating around. I may have to hook up with Mr Wann in the meantime...

Dave,

Thanks for the kind words!

It's finished but a few adjustments and touchups need to be completed. I will get 'er done and post the final stages.

I also have a hell of a story to tell about the Cosma Ray with the final instalment, as I've had the singular and exceptional honor of speaking at length about the car with the 1:1 Cosma Ray's longtime owner.
