Well guys I well be 65 this month. I saw my first Cobra coming down the alley when I was working on my first real sports car a Aston Martin 2/4 1956 drophead. I had trade my 1967 MGB and 25.00 a month for two years for the Aston. The Cobra was red and had wire wheels and and I can still see it today in mind how sharpe it look. About that time I saw my first racing Cobra at Kent raceway Park just south of Seattle at the seafare race Aug. I had my first ride in one when I was laying over in Portland Oregon for the CO. I work put us up just acrros the road from PIR. The guy who own this small block was runing aroud PIR on a track day, he asket me if I wanted to go for few laps and I said sure and it was one hell of ride.
In 1992 I bought a kit from Classic rds and built a big block car 427cid etc,etc. And every time I take the car cover off and step down on the pedal I get a big smile on face. Thanks Brett for the web site and all you others who have posted.
