Ron, we still have the Cobra. The kids would disown me if I sold it. We did sell the 911. We had it at a shop to do some work and the shop owner made too good of an offer. Those early air cooled are ridiculous now.

She doesn't wan to take it out at night, she wants to drive it to school. She loved being dropped off at school in it. Can't do it now with hauling both kids.

When she was Jacob's age she asked if the Cobra could be used as a race car. After I answered she said "OK, I will race it a couple times and give it back". After that I vowed to always have an adjustable rev limiter in that car and not show anyone how to adjust it.

She took a young eagles flight and is going through her ground school. The EAA pays for the ground school and the first flight and first flight lesson to get kids interested in flying.
