Hi, Ned. I'm one step ahead of the bill collector and undertaker, so I guess I'm OK! :-)
Finally got something to replace the hole left when I sold 3159. I'm driving it and having fun. How's everything with you?

All is well, and it's nice to know you're still out there enjoying excessive horsepower. Keep it up!

It needs a roof mounted Air conditioner, and curtains. That way at shows he can sit inside, be extra comfortable, and see the sights. One of this kids can drive it around the show area and be comfortable while doing the tour. It woulldn't be bad to keep the car in the trailer as well.

I wonder if the money spent on the trailer was shorted for the car?

Me bad. Forty lashes, etc. etc.. What about a port-a-potty?

You are correct. I don't have a trailer. Having a trailer for a Cobra is like having a trailer for a Harley. I've never appreciated the point of towing a vehicle with another vehicle. Why not drive it? I think its fine that Carl has this exotic trailer. I'm sure Carl really likes it and enjoys the complements for it and his Cobra. I could never do it, unless I had a disability that prevented long trips.

One of the funny encounters I had was a trip from San Francisco area to Arches National Monument. Having made a 1000 mile trip on the Harley, we had a brief conversation with a person who mentioned that his trailered Harley was back at the motel. He thought we were brave for toughing out the 5 mile trip from the motel to the arches in the hot weather. Why did he bring his bike? Some of the most majestic sights one can see and he blocks his view by driving a car while his trailered motorcycle sits back at the motel. This, I don't understand.
