    You could find out what your job number, order number, tracking number, etc, is and when others interested in a set call them, we could tell them the number. They should keep all the info with your order on file. I would like a 5 lug setup to fit my II rear as well.

    What Color Of A Cobra Ii Looks Better} {poll!!!!!!

    My 77 was a late 77 that came with 78 tri-color stripes. Black with yellow/orange/red. It is solid black for now. I want to photoshop a picture to see what the tri-color blues from the white Cobras would look like on a black car. I drew one in colored pencil years ago that looked really good.
