Cool Lunch at the Sandwich Factory April 5, Ventura, CA.

The next date for lunch at the Sandwich Factory in Ventura, Ca. is Saturday, April 5 at 11:30. Any and all are invited. Any and all in the Tri-Counties (and beyond) are invited. Food is good and wives are invited. The group is growing all the time. We now have 39 Cobras running 4 on the ground that participate and another 7 in process.
If you are coming or might come, sign in or email me so I can let the Factory know how many to expect.
If you are building a car or just interested you are also invited.

John,

Looks like I might be able to make this one WITH the Cobra. Last time I brought friends and we had to bring the Jag-you-RRR. You guys make the best pictures of my car. Thank you!

Default Iffffffy at best.

I had the car up on the high banks at Cal Speedway last weekend and rattled the bottom end. IF I get it back together - I will be there for sure. IF not - I may be there in my Jeep... which I will park in the rear.

Unhappy gonna miss it again

John,
Thanks for the reminder. Unfortunately I will be out of town on vacation. I am sure you will manage without me as you all have for quite some time. If I could just quit my job etc I would probably make more of these.

take care and have a good one

Talking Sandwich Factory Lunch

Looking forward to it John!
Wouldn't miss it for the world. Hopefully the weather will continue the way it was this weekend. Any ideas on a cruise for that day?
Bob!

Thumbs up Sandwich Factory lunch

I can't believe it. Two meetings in a row for Spotter Joe?
What next? A Ford winning the Winston Cup Title? Anything is possible now.

Looks like its going to be a big group.
14 Cobras confirmed so far and its only Monday.

Bob - think of something - I've been sick for about three weeks.
If I'm not better, I won't go on a cruise but, obviously I'll be there.
John

Default Attorney

Sorry to change topic but this is important. I have a little labor issue problem and I would like to know if anyone is an attorney? Or could anyone recommend an attorney that could give me a consultation?

Now, COBRA related. I pulled the bottom end down tonight and found that number one rod bearing had starved. I detected a small knock and shut it down at Cal Speedway. I can just re-bearing it as the crank is perfect but I am having an oil pan made and will not get it until next week. So I will be there for lunch in my Jeep.

FYI, this may sound corny but I found a Mexican guy on the internet that makes racing oil pans and he is in LA. So today I went to look at his handy work and was very impressed - in fact I contracted him to build me a pan. He specializes in Cobra racing replica pans at very reasonable prices. I am having a copy of the Shelby 427 road racing pan made - I can't wait to get it. I will now have to start showing people the UNDER side of the car as well. Here is his info in case you are interested, maybe it would be a good idea to put this contact in your reference book for later - you never know!

Look forward to seeing all of you there on Saturday.
Sure would like to see Steve D.'s ERA soon. Hope that things are getting sorted out with that distributor drive.

Hope this doesn't ruin things but it looks Like rain this saturday!

I really need to make it out one of these days! Unfortunately I have a yard full of projects due to the last rain we had! Had a retaining wall come down & a tree that was threatening to come down on the house. My yard is looking a little like Bagdad right now.

Guys,
Looking forward to seeing all of you. Wish I could say I'll be there with the car but the engine is now sitting on my garage floor.

WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE WOULD BE INTERESTED IN TAKING A CRUISE UP TO THE "COLD SPRINGS TAVERN" ON 154 ON THE WAY TO SOLVANG. IF THE WEATHER IS GOOD IT SHOULD BE A GREAT DRIVE. I REALIZE THAT IT MAY BE A BIT FAR FOR THE FOLKS COMING FROM THE VALLEY AND BEYOND. IF SO, HAVEN'T GOT MUCH TIME BEHIND THE WHEEL AND AM UP FOR A CRUISE ANYWHERE.
LET ME KNOW.
COBRA BOB FROM VENTURA!
