Talking New Here kinda

I have been a member here to many years just lurking in the shadows. I was registered years ago as Faro. I ran into a lot of computer problems and switched ISP's a few times. So Not being able to remember the correct password I took the easy route and just signed up again.
I also have been a fan of these cars since I first watched them race in 1968
at our local autocross event.
I Have been a car guy since my teens. I have had some sort of custom car since I was 15 years old. I finally decided I better not put off getting a Cobra any longer. Like most people my age I watched enough of my IRA's shrink that I just decided hey if its leaving I may as well get me something for my money.
When I got the bug bad I bought a Cobra off E-Bay. If I wasn't a man of my word I would have not payed the crook for the car. It is destined to become a Rat Rod. To my good fortune the next week I found a Classic Roadster kit just 6 miles away. I purchased it also. The wife? Sure she was pissed at the second car. She felt we needed to buy her one of them fancy adjustable beds. I did too just then. So in the span off 10 days I picked up two Cobras+bed for the price of a quality roller. Now the wife smiles and I do Too.
