Default Expressions of Interest.

G'day Guys, I haven't posted for a while but do check in from time to time.
There comes a time in every not so young mans life when he finds it increasingly difficult to get in and out of his Cobra, so I will probably be advertising mine for sale this Victorian summer. It occurs to me that there maybe someone who would love to build a Cobra but may be daunted by the prospect, who may be interested . As a few of you may remember my build wasn't a true replica, so it may be suitable as smaller project. Only minor stuff would need to be done such as wheels, (mine are 18") bonnet scoop, mirrors and bumpers. It's a Harrison, L98 & T56, engineered and registered in Victoria in 2011. Its got under 5000km. Any questions please ask. Cheers, Peter, 0426206471

Sorry to hear that you are selling your Cobra but I can certainly relate to the getting older and having trouble getting in and out. Every time I twist around to get in and out of the Coupe my back seems to hurt for days. Best wishes and I hope that you can find something to do that will keep you young.

Ron

Yeah, getting old isn't for wimps!
Sometimes my knees hurt almost to the point of having to stop and walk off the pain while driving my Cobra. I just remind myself it isn't a luxury car and all the "thumbs up" and enjoyment I receive driving it seem to ease the pain. That, and how long I've wanted one and how long it took to get one. I'm not getting rid of mine until I need a crane to lift me in and out of it!
