That would be fair. It's freakin' cold in NH and MM would be an excellent choice too and probably he might give a break just to get out of NH now.
And to be fair, there are others on the east coast that will do you well too. Just look around here some more.
Bottom line is the guys that inspect on ebay have no clue about Cobras or anything else except 1990 Chevy's. Get someone who knows a Cobra.
Shelby CSX cars are good sound Cobras and it won't disappoint you. You do need to know the history and any of the guys mentioned here will be able to spot if major repairs have been done. But even if so, don't necessarily let that necessarily scare you. Almost all of the originals were wrecked during their racing days. On Sunday they looked horrible and by the next Friday they looked new. It all depends on who did the work. There are a few that are renowned for their work. CARFAX don't work on Cobras, so be sure to get "the rest of the story".
Good luck with your purchase and I hope you will drive the snot out of it. I put almost 5000 miles on mine by myself (since my wife wouldn't go in it). I love my GT, but the cobra was exhilarating!
