Going to Kirkham

Just wanted say thanks to Tom and the guys at Kirkham. I am up here in Utah visiting the wifes family and decided to go check out Kirkham's shop. Even though I do no have a Kirkham, Tom took his time to show me the shop and all the beautiful cars he has there. Seeing the copper 40 coupe in person was something I did not think would ever happen. Seeing the copper Cobras was also something I did not bank on. Seeing one of the billet cars though....that was a special treat in it self.

Walking around the shop talking with Tom and watching the guys work on the cars that were there to be serviced....I almost felt like applying for a job...lol.

Thanks again Tom...It made my day.

He didnt say and I didnt ask to tell you the truth. It would be waaaaaaaay to far for me to drive...lol.

I did see something on the door going into the office about Mustang Mayham but I didnt pay too much attention.

Copper Cobras? Far as I know there was only one and it's in North Carolina.

No doubt the billet car would be even more impressive in person.

I was also up there last week on vacation with the family. Stopped by last Friday and the place was empty. Tom Sr came out to see if we needed something. I told him we were hoping to get a tour. Tom Sr spent the next hour and a half giving us an entire tour, including his "special collection". He was the most gracious and patient gentleman, and spent time talking with my wife and kids while we looked around. It was a most memorable trip for me and made a big impression on the family. As a Cobra guy, I was in heaven! Yes, there are two copper Cobras in the works for one customer. One has a beautiful SOHC in it! Thank you again Tom Sr!!
