Had the Gt40 and the Lone Star Cobra in the driveway cleaning them and the cop pulled in the cul-de-sac across the street and parked. I figured what a jerk, he is waiting for me to leave and will get me for no front tag, noise, something. Well I walked over to try to avert this situation and talk to him. He said "I am just sitting here wondering if you have a cobra and a gt40 in the driveway, what the heck you got in the garage?" We laughed and have become friends and he goes up to the local neighborhood car show, in his patrol car, with me on sat. nights. Lets us make noise but be nice!!!! Good to have a local on your side. He is a gearhead as I think alot of officers are.
In my daily drivers I have no front tag as required by Texas Law and have been stopped over the years several times for it. In the Cobra or 40 I have no tag and they never say a word!!!!!
