redmt, I started seriuosly looking for a Cobra about 4 years ago when I was about your age. I finally bought one for my 63rd birthday......it's absolutely fun and I kick myself sometime for waiting. Oh by the way, I changed my mind several times before I bought, but the itch always came back! That said, just make sure it's a feel want. There's a lot of cars out there for sell, many from guys who thought they wanted one. Several have said buy it instead of build and I totally agree. The market as you can see on CobraCountry sure looks like a buyer's market with some really nice cars available. As I have said in other posts on this subject, this site is probably your best internet source of information as you complete you search. Hopefully there are guys locally who I'm sure will share their knowledge. Between those 2 approachs my search turned out very well! Yours should as well!!

Good luck.........just use your old school knowledge and common sense to tell if it's the right one! Oh, forget the A/C and top, you'll see why when you get one!!
