Smile The Cobra Family

We have maybe 30 Cobra in a 100 mile radius of Florence but 6 to 13 people will show up at car shows or our Friday night eat outs. We meet every Friday night (3 to 13 people) and enjoy each others company. We have 5 die hard's that go to a lot of shows or ride together. Other come and go as their time allows them. We still have fun and enjoy everyone's company. I have everyone on an email list and keep them posted on what going on, interesting post on Club Cobra & FFR, etc. A few of them email me with things of interest that I pass on to the others. Once a year I email everyone and tell them if I don't hear from them in 10 days or so I will drop them from the mail list. I don't want to spam them with a lot of car stuff they are not interested in. 98% will respond and tell me to keep them on the list. For the last 5 years eight of us have traveled to the London Cobra Show together. We help each other on our car projects and other home project. I had a lot of help in building my shop (50 x 50). Four of us own a car hauling trailer that has made trips to pick up Cobra kits.
Yea, we have become a family and not all have Cobras. It's great to have friends that enjoy cars like I do and are just a phone call away.

Some of these guys are MOPAR guys, but we let them hang around with us.






sometime we get 9 or 10 together for a car show, that's nine or ten Cobras
