Default Another one on the road


After 14 years I have finally registered the Cobra. Great feeling no more hassles trying to meet the deadline of christmas. I still have a bit of work to do to finish the bits not done and to redo some bits that were rushed so that I could get the registration out of the way. I have finally posted a few photos as well.
Bring on the sunshine

As someone whose current cobra ownership is limited to a very tiny 1:24 model I don't want to hear 14 years to build!

Happy motoring and hopefully I'll see you out on the road one day. Hopefully sooner than 14 years!

Good to catch up with you and Marshall at Doug's on the weekend. Took a run out to Rob H. to have a look at the Harrison after you left.

Phil,

Great to see you got legal. Congrats, great feeling isn't it.

After 14 years you can be sure the resin is cured.

What are your first impressions?

Just in time for summer. Have fun.


Phil

Congratulation on getting it on the road.
The passed 14 years will just add to the future enjoyment.

Phil,

My first impessions are
Its bloody cold at 7:00 am in the morning and you get wet if its raining and you stop at the lights but its great when the sun comes out.....
The only problem is its been raining in Melbourne since I got the plates.
I'm looking forward to a fine weekend so that I can go for a ride.

Phil
