Tom, I love hearing stories like these. Dad and I had many similar stories of our own, including the time he welled up as we watched his former Datsun 510 (partial trade for the Cobra) drive off on a trailer. Thank you for sharing.

If my Father owned a Cobra there would never been a doubt who the next "Caretaker" would be. I'm sure both of our Father's are looking down and smiling that we have done the right thing, As you know you have lot's of friends here to help with the Cobra. Cheers Tom.
