Default Cobra Sighting

New SPF Blue with Silver Stripes. No plates sticker on windshield. Mature gentleman driving S.O. in the pass seat. Gentleman has white/silver hair wearing a beige hat.

I yelled at him through my pass window to say hi. He probably thought I was a wacko. He was traveling north on the 17 and got off at Dunlap. Time 4:54PM. Date today the 6 of November

Any ideas who this might be?


Mike

Don't know the SPF driver but his opinion of you was spot on!

Funny how complete strangers can come to the same conclusion, about Mikie, that we all know to be true.

Mike from your description it sounds like that just might've been my cousin Ken and his wife. He was expecting delivery on a new SPF, blue w/silver last time I spoke with him a
couple months ago. They visited us in WA when I still had my SPF several years ago and he said he'd love to have one. He just retired, made a bundle in CA realty, and moved to a new house in Scottsdale in Jan.

I've told him ya'll had a good group down there and to get in touch with the AZ club through CC. Fun couple to be around.

"I've told him ya'll had a good group down there and to get in touch with the AZ club through CC."

Now your cousin thinks you are a wacko for recommending the wackos in Phoenix. Too bad. Good luck on Thursday Mike. NO WORRIES!

Gary...

I hope I did not scare him. If you talk to him have him say Hi here and send me an email.

Mike,

Thanks for the invitation to join Arizona Cobra Club. We live in the San Francisco bay area and were in Phoenix for the weekend to attend a wedding. We had a great ride to and from Phoenix. Arizona liked our visit so much that they took pictures of our Cobra several times with those freeway cameras. I'm not sure we will be receiving copies since we don't have plates. The officer chased us down on our way out of town just to let us know he could not see any plates. He filled out paper work just to document that he stopped and talked to visitors from California. Next time we are in town with the Cobra we will to contact you to join your group for breakfast. Likewise, if you are ever in the bay area we can do a breakfast.
