IMHO....driving a Cobra for 5 hours is about a hour too long. They are more like a motorcycle than a grand touring car with all the noise and exposure to the elements.

In addition to the probability of trouble... leaving one out overnight is risky.

If you have the time, you can trailer it, you will likely want a trailer anyway and perhaps you can rent one or borrow one before you decide.

If you have a partner, driving it on occasion on the right road in the right weather would be fun.

Now, I am under the impression that if the car and your home are not on a weekly route for a commercial hauler it may take some time to find hauler and it will cost more like $2 a mile ??

For example, you will find a hauler that will take the car from LA to Seattle but not to Omak, so you may have to drive it or make additional arrangements for the last miles to home. Door to Door with one car will be expensive.
