So MikieC comes over yesterday.
So MikieC comes over yesterday. I ask him if he wants to drive the Widow. He does 0 to 50 to 0 in front of my house, all in about 100 feet!! I says "Mike, I have to live here!" Well, I come home last nite and there are burning crosses in my yard. Anyone want to buy a house? O.J. also came over to pick up the body buck and we went for a ride. O.J. is a police officer with Phx. PD. I says,
" Cool, if we get pulled over you can show 'em your badge". He says "good idea, let me get it!" I was untouchable. O.J., I have a feeling you won't have any problems at DMV.

Jim,
Tell the neighbors the throttle stuck then the brakes locked up..
Just think next time I'll arrive with 10 to 15 cars and hold some impromptu drags.
Great car, well put together.

Drags, somebody say Drags....
Ah, the thought of high speeds on a quite street, no traffic, everybody who lives there has a front row seat. Count me in...
Neighbors, they love the car when your building it, hate it when its done. Despise it when you get up at 5:00am to go for a ride, and seven of your Cobra buddies show up in front of the house!!!! Screw'em if they cant take a joke!
All joking aside, congrats on the plates, and getting her on the road.
How is that Thong on the hot seats????????? (hot seat, get it?)
L8R,
Brian...........

Brian, the thong was just to get my plates. I can't wear it all the time. I'd never get anything done.

Brian..
If a little motor noise caused Jim's neughbor's to burn crosses...
I hate to think what your beast will make them do. I bet they will looking for an old oak and a rope.
Jim, After I left your place and crusin along Cactus doing about 35 to 40 MPH. All of a sudden I get flashed by a van on the side of the road. Check Speedo 40MPH, speed limit sign says 30MPH.
Your neighbors may get revenge yet.

Mike, that sucks!! They are always there. I thought I told you about that. Talk to O.J. see if he can pull some strings. I think he should be the club fixer. Let's all take a vote.

I figure if I don't get anything in the mail in the next 2 weeks I'll be OK. If I do well, I'll take it to court. I was keeping up with the car in front of me. Or maybe call O.J.
Question... Where did you get your side view mirrors? I don't know why I did not ask you that before.

Hey, Hersh...
Yeah, I did.
You said they came from an old 40's car. I figured it was one buried in the back some place.
Do you have a source locally for them?
Glad your back.

Well like Mike said,
"My car will pass almost anything on the road, except a gas station" Not sure if it is a good idea to venture out with the gas situation the way it is?? This is when Jerry's car wins hands down with his 22mpg! I think the green machine is grounded until they figure this thing out..............
GOT GAS?
Later,
Brian
P.S. We were out at PAV last Saturday, 3 Cobras and the weather was nice! especially the drive home.

No Idea Jim,
All I know is that it is hard to find gas around here in the East valley, I am keeping gas cans in the parts van, so I can tap the premium pump when I get a chance, just to fill the Cobra.
Jim how about some shots of the car! you do not have any in your profile, we want to see..........
Hersh how was the trip? we have not herd from you in awhile...
Take care guys,
GOT GAS?
Brian

OK Mikie,
I'll take ya on, BUT, I need to wait for a good 50mph plus tail wind, umm (or draft off of your car?) 
Jim the car looks awesome, can't wait to see her in real time. The season is on it's way, only two more months! And it will be Prime Time for Cobra owners.........
Keep it above 100.............
L8R,
Brian
