Connect with other Prescott, AZ area Cobra people

Let me re-introduce myself, long time Cobra owner, fairly new to AZ. After the move, I decided to pull the Cobra out of moth balls and start driving it again. My Cobra is a Classic Roadsters that has been on the road since mid-90's. I missed the Kingman event by a couple of weeks while sorting out a leaking water pump and other issues from storing the car for a few years. I think the car is now completely sorted out again and my wife and I have enjoyed some short trips on the mountain roads in central AZ over the last few weeks.

I've heard about and seen a few Cobras around town but have yet been able to connect with the owners. Would like to get to know some folks in the area that also have the addiction to high HP vintage sports cars!

Hi Joel, Yes, sorry you missed Rt. 66. I live in Cottonwood so I'm just over the mountain from you.

Joel, don't let Ralph (RVNDOC) talk you into a race with his BUICK. One bad 6 cylinder!

Joel, if you have 2-hours of free time, ask KarlzEE about his first Cobra, and high HP, lightweight Cobras, he know with what he speaks, even if it was a Big Block CHEVY

Thanks for all the responses so far, keep them coming! I figured there were some Cobra people nearby and I see that's correct. I'm sure there's even more.

I'm following up to exchange contact info via individual Private Message.

Hi,
Welcome to AZ. I'm in Tempe.

I've not met anyone either. But I'm in the heavy research phase. My niche is my 68, 69 Fords.
