Paula, what a great couple of stories. The one about the meatballs  God love 'em.
"repairs or broken parts" For me that has nothing to do with it! I am obcessed! The ONLY thing I have ever had to do to me car is replace a wheel bearing. But that will never stop me!

Mine's getting a new stablemate. An MDA GT40 Mk I. That probably should be enough I'd say.

Well Guys,
You're not going to believe this, but my car's getting a miniature scanner. My navigator is tired of the instructions and maps flapping around in the car. We have a new 10" monitor on the dash for GPS navigation and now we will start using it to display the instructions and maps, too.
And yes, having instructions that you can read, does make the car go faster!
Paul

I'm thinking of changing all the DOT 3 fluids over to DOT 5.1 over the winter, and I bought some of that Ultra Shift trans fluid from Cobra Valley that I'm dying to try (it's gotten great reviews!). I just put in (couldn't wait for x-mas!) a new set of Cobra floor mats (custom cut for SPF's!) that I got from my wife (she bought them from Finish Line and I found the box.....supposed to be a x-mas present....ooops!). Now I'm trying to talk the wife into getting me the Tri-Pod headlights from Finish Line.......but since I got the floor mats, I may have to rely on Santa...... I Got a few new bonnets for my polisher, so I'm planning on giving her a nice waxing before putting her under the new "custom made" car cover I'm getting ready to order! Merry Christmas Cobra!!!
PS: Come spring she's gonna get a set of the BIG lettered Goodyears from Kraus Racing.......can't wait!

After reading all the Weber posts & seeing all the beautiful pictures, I think Santa might be bringing a stack of 48 IDA's.

Well, if I can get the rest of the ceiling panels up and then get the insulation guys over to blow in the insulation, I'll fire up the Hot Dawg and give my Cobra a warm place to wait out the rest of the winter.

Well, that's it....
I called Boooo Shiiiiittttt on this cold Weather. I say son.
My old Kerosun just was not cuttin' the mustard keeping my backsides or the barn warm while crawlin under the Cobra.
I toddled myseff down to the hardware store and loaded a 200,000 BTU multi-fule space heater with thermostat into the trunk and now we are a warm as toast.
This heater sounds like a 747 is landing when its running but it aint runnin too long. Careful where you point that rascal. The barn sure is warm now.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow...
(and you guys in the nice warm south and west... just count your blessings.... you may wonder what I am doing in the cold barn in the winter workin' with the Cobra? Why... I'm Installing the rare Shelby Cobra Snow Plow Option on the front. The Cobra is gonna pay for itself this winter, dad gum it!)

Art,
You got the SNOWPLOW!!!!???? The SHELBY SNOWPLOW???? OMYGAWD!!!
I'm adapting one from a Jeep. I remember seeing one old picture in a magazine or somewhere of the Cobra snowplow option but I'd have to work from dim memory. Could you PLEASE post a picture of the plow frame with maybe an open tape measure in there to help save me many hours of cutting and trying? Do you have the aluminum plow blade or the fiberglass plow blade? How many rivets? Ooh, Jeez... I can't believe it... the snowplow!!! Wooohhh!!! Thank you, thank you!!!
