Default chipperb update

I bought my first Cobra replicia in 2001 when I bough my present factory built Unique (now for sale). I was active in the Atlanta area Cobra scene, going to the Unique Home Coming and one of the first Deep South Cobra Clubs held at Southern Automotive

I then went on to gwt a Daytona replicia, then a Shelby GT350 replica, and finally a GT40 replica.

I then went on a wild tangent and went back to motorcycle, building 2 cafe racers and geeting my road race comp license.

Motorcycles were too fast for me so I went back to my original love of go karts, starting back in go kart road racing in 2008 (started racing karts in 1958-yep!). Then I got into Vintage go karts-twin engined and all. Then into boats.

Now back to Shelby replicas. I am here to help anyone. c

Wow, you are restless...

I bet you've seen some awesome development in karts over your 50yr hiatus.

Any photos you could share of your cars would be great!

- Allen.

Now I understand. I have the same great illness..

Three old vintage BMW bikes and a newer BMW K-bike...they get under your skin.
Vintage races at Barbers Motorsports in October..
The Unique factory is just north of me-family -owned; JagIRS and inboard disc brakes.
Shelby Cobra replicas are personal-but Unique and ERA have the personal touch..

Taking mine in for a factory check-up soon....but if its still around...I am interested in your nice little Cobra.....have some more space...
