When I built my FFR, I had no intentions of ever selling it. (which is kind of weird since I"m in the car business).
This was my living out of a boyhood dream, and I built it as a driver, with power steering, EFI etc.
I had no complaints at all about the car. It could beat a new Z06 in the 1/4 and still get 20 mpg on the road.
Anyways, long story short,,,,,, someone owed me a serious amount of money and it was putting me into a bind.
I sold my cobra with the intent on building another one again as soon as I could justify it.
I went through a few weeks of cobra withdrwal and still miss it.
The good news is that my financial matter has been mostly resolved and I did get my asking price for my cobra,,,,,soooooo it was time to start shopping.
All in all,,,,the selling of the car has kind of made another dream a possibility for me, because I recently decided to just "go for it" ,,,,and build a car that I had never thought "I" could possibly own.
I now have a GT40 replica on order from New Zealand ,and hope to see it in the next 4-5 months.
My only problem now,,,is to try and keep from going nuts while I wait!
