Thumbs up Hi to all out there-another Newbee here

Hi to everyone out there, my name is Dean and this is my 1st posting on the Club Cobra site (or any site for that matter!).
I've been involved with Cobras for the past 12 years having built 2 Cobras myself (1 DRB & 1 Harrison) and currently own a DRB GT40. I have posted some photos of my last Cobra (sold it last year) and the GT40 that my son and myself now own in the photo gallery and I think i have attached a couple to this posting too but I'm not sure if i've done it right.
The last Cobra was built in association with Scott Hampson of Venom Custom Fabrications and i can reitterate the comments of 750hp in a previous posting that Scott does great work, as you will see if you check out what he did with engine/engine bay of our last car.
Anyway i just wanted to get my 1st post out of the way and i hope that i can contribute to the site in the future.

Cheers
Dean

Also welcome Dean. Maybe we will see you at the Christmas dinner at Twin Waters in November?

Thanks to all for your replies and warm welcomes. Shows what a great community of people Cobra owners/enthusiasts are!
Bernie, yeah i agree this is a great place to meet new friends and get new ideas. I wish i had've joined a lot earlier.
Rog, haha yes i've been infected for quite some time and can't see that changing.
Merv, I'd love to attend the Christmas dinner but we are going to NZ from 11/11 to 30/11 so can't make it unfortunately. I am hoping to rejoin the Qld Cobra Car Club shortly (I was a member several years ago) so will hopefully meet up with some of you guys soon.

Dean
