I'm a lazy guy who lives in Foster City, 7:30 AM?!! Wow you guys are early birds! In all seriousness, I'll try my best to make it up there sometime in the very near future. I have a late model Corvette and a Porsche, so maybe I'll show up in the Porsche in case I get lynched for owning a Chevy!

I'm looking for something I could literally drive everyday, but still remains very faithful to the original in looks and mechanics. I know it sounds silly, but I've used a 1963 Ferrari 250 GTE as a daily driver, so anything's possible! Temperemental machine, but if you know how to take care of it, it'll last you forever.

As long as I don't cook in the summer, freeze in the winter, and get wet in the spring and fall, I'm game! Don't care if the car is loud, has little trunk space, no stereo, etc. I am out looking at a visceral experience, and I'm told to look no further than the Cobra, so here I am!

The looks are also very important. One of my father's friends owns a genuine mid 60's Cobra and I don't know if there were many different body styles, but a lot of the Cobra replicas out there don't seem to match up to well. I want to go to vintage events with him, and although I won't advertise mine as the real deal, I don't want to get laughed out of the tent either! It might not be too late for this years Historics and overall car nut dream coming in August!
