[Edley Rondinone]

Early February, a couple years back, about an hour north of Phoenix AZ, 9 AM...temperature was about 40 degrees, clear but COLD! At the owner's house, the Cobra the only car in his two car garage, a beautiful sight!! I had seen lots of pictures he sent on the internet, but the car, LIVE and for real, the pictures never do them justice.
He started it up, let it idle a bit for the temps to come up, and out the door we went. A lot of two-lane roads, kinda windy and kinda fast, just putting the car thru its paces.
After about 15 minutes, he pulled over, and let me drive it. After the initial worries of me fitting in it to drive, (I'm 6'3"), I was able to drive it back to his garage. He told me he would turn the key off if I went too fast, but he never had to worry. I was just so happy to drive the car at about 75-80!
Remember, its 40 degrees out, and I'm driving this Cobra at a pretty good clip with its WOODEN steering wheel, and it was so cold, my hands were almost numb from the weather, but we made it back OK. God, what a great feeling!
He trailered it back to my house that night; got home about midnite, and I tucked it into its new home, my garage!
