Default Hello for the SF Bay Area

Hello everyone, I am a potential new Cobra builder looking for some local owners who would like to talk about their cars, who wouldn't, their experiences, and the build process. I am in Livermore, it doesn't matter to me whether you are done or still building.
Thanks
Rich

Rich,
I'm also located in Livermore! I built my Cobra about 25 years ago and it's my daily driver now. If you've seen a blue with white stripes Cobra rattling the windows around downtown, it's likely mine. I also have a couple of non-Cobra car projects underway in my garage right now. I'll PM you with a phone number.

Check out the Bay Area Cobra Club page.BACCEVENTS Home Note the link on the right hand side. That group gets together for breakfast just about every Saturday at Clementine's in Dublin. They usually have 10-20 cars show up every week. They'd be happy to chat with you and show off your car.

I also live in Livermore and have an ERA. The engine is out of it at the moment, but if you're considering an ERA, I'd be happy to chat with you about it.

I'm just south of town about 25-30 miles and have a Contemporary that is more than likely up for sale to the right buyer. It's all NIB and VERY complete. Most everything except carpet and paint.
PM/email sent.

I second the recommendation for Bay Area Cobra Club. We meet every Saturday morning at 7:00 at Clementines in San Ramon. Lots of knowledge. Great people.

Thanks for the responses. I signed up for the BACC newsletter. I was sure if outsiders were welcome at the breakfast..
I think I saw Joel feeding his Cobra at the ARCO on Stanley tonight. You were gone before I could get there.

Rich,

Welcome to the site and though I am in far Northern Calif. I know several of the guys from the Bay Area Cobra Club and they are a great bunch and can help you out with about anything you have questions about. Have fun and enjoy the build.

Ron

Yes, that was me feeding the beast. That's the price you pay for enjoying your Cobra, but it's really a small price for the satisfaction it brings.

Rich,
Show up tomorrow and I'll buy you breakfast. There aren't outsiders ('cept for those Danville Dukes and their pin-striped walkers!)

New to the Tri Valley Area and looking for a good shop to service and Repair my Superformance.

Any help in advance is appreciated.

Thanks

Rich,
No problem. Unfortunately you missed the free new member breakfast offer. Now you get to buy for the club.;-)

It would have been cheaper last Sat—most members were at SAAC.
