A couple of you have noticed that my car is listed on Ebay, and yesterday at the Penske Museum Cars and Coffee, it was one of the topics of conversation.
Yes - I've decided to list it and see if there is someone out there who wants it.
and NO - I'm not going "Cobra-less". It's just that this car has never been what I truly wanted. I've wanted a 289 style car since day one. This car kind of just fell out of the sky and into my lap, because the guy that put me in touch with the seller knew that I could successfully bring this car out of its 10-year hibernation and get it back out onto the road, where it belongs.
And I have - It's been a VERY fun year getting all the bugs worked out of this car, and making the improvements that have turned it into a far better car than it was, and having a fun, reliable, weekend play-toy. I've loved every one of the almost 4000 miles I've put on it.
But it's still not the FIA car that I want.
So, I've put it on the market at what I think is a fair price (a price that you could never build an equivalent car for) and see if I can find it a new home....
...and then I'm going to go out and buy the Cobra that I want (or I'll build it, if I can't find the right deal on a finished FIA).
But, as long as this one's in my garage, I'm going to keep putting miles on it, and I'm going to keep doing road trips with this group, and I'm going to keep on enjoying it...
Wish me luck.
