I actually wasn't looking for a Cobra way back when....

I saw this really cool looking car on "Miami Vice" - if you remember that show. I went looking in a car magazine for the Ferarri Daytona Coupe and saw a magazine full of cobras. That did it. I instantly fell in love with the car's look. I was about 16 at the time and told myself I would own one of those cars by the time I was 30. I didn't quite make it, but I now own one that I built and have enjoyed the whole process. The car was licensed when I was 39 - only 9 years late. I consider it a success!
