Yes, I'll try to do QSL!

My mileage was about 11-12 mpg on Route 66 -- BUT at least 15 mpg, maybe more, on the Interstates coming home. It was suprisingly good on the way home, just cruising at like 2,700 rpms.

The amount of attention it got along the Route was truly incredible. It was nice to be able to show a Cobra to so many people and for them to actually see one being taken out on the open road, rather than at a car show. I think it heightens everyone's Cobra awareness.

I'm not much for attention OR strangers (I like to think I have a kind of a sublime under-the-radar type cool) so that was a bit distracting and a little odd. Every hillbilly has to come up to you, touch the car, tell his "I used to own a COPO Nova..." story. Around here, its rare that someone says something about the car or gives it a second glance. But there's a lot of these Cobras in the Fox Valley, very few in Williams, AZ...
