Default New to AZ Cobra

Hi just wanted to introduce myself and say hello. Just bought this amazing Cobra replica built by Backdraft racing...some of you might recognize it as it was a previous Cobra club owner...can you guess who's it was?

Welcome Charles
Backdraft cars are very nice indeed.
I was looking at one with a 5.0 Coyote motor but it ended up selling to someone over seas so I'm guessing thats not the one you ended up with.
Can you post up a picture?

Was it Ron's car? I just got an email from him this morning saying he'd sold his car to a really nice guy. So I know it's no one we would be familiar with. In any event, welcome.

The Master At Arms will send you a list of the Rules of the Road and the meeting Rules of Order. He will also collect your dues at the next meeting.. Oh, I forgot. We don't have any rules and we don't have any meetings. Come to think about it, we don't have a Master at Arms.

Oh well...

While your typing your response, look up about 1" for a "paper clip" which is for "attachments".
Click on the paper click and a second window will open. Once in that window click on "browse" which will allow you to find all your pictures loaded on your computer.
Click on the picture you like and then click open.
Then click "upload" and your done.

Welcome,

Don't believe anything you read on here. This is the original club of misfits and liars.

Cheers

Welcome Charles! Just keep an eye on those PHX guys. Don't bend over to tie your shoes and you'll be fine!

And before you ask Mike, I haven't been working on the car lately. Broken pipe under the slab of my house has taken over car time. Be back to it soon though.

Mikie, the Master at Arms job is available. It pays $100 per meeting if you maintain order and $200 per meeting if you don't.

I'll take the joy. Can I make Karl my Sargent at arms?

Larry, forget about the water pipe. You need to get your priorities in order. Need water, have the wife grab a couple of buckets and head down to the nearest stream.

"have the wife grab a couple of buckets and head down to the nearest stream."

Now can't you all see Mikie telling Ginny to grab a couple of buckets and head down to the stream? Ouch! Just thinking about that hurts..:

Congrats on buying Ron's car, it is a very nice car. I hope to attend the Gainey Village cars and coffee on the 5th too. I'll look for you and introduce myself.
