Our businesses has kept me busy for the last month and I am not sure when it will let up. It really slowed down my search and caused me to miss a couple of really nice cars; one was a SPF that went for $42K and a BDR that went for $37K.

However......last week while visiting one of the companies, I got a tip on a car and dropped by to see it on the way to the airport. Not a Cobra, but #2 on the list. It was a 1956 Porsche 550 Spyder replica. The car was/is in excellent shape and is loaded with goodies. The price was right so I took delivery of it yesterday. I spent all day today cleaning it up and fixing a few minor issues. It is an absolute blast to drive...at 1200 pounds, it is fast and handles like a dream.

I haven't abandoned my cobra search however. I am still looking but work will keep the search slow for the next 6 months to a year. I have a tip on a BDR that is a little over priced but hopefully time on the market without interest will bring the price down.
