The latter one that's polished and has the stacked injection is beautiful. Like many discussion threads here on cc, I don't know about the sun glare for the occupants and surrounding drivers !

If I had the funds, I would buy either car,.....maybe both. lol

Question- Is that a replica magneto ?

Sunglasses should fix the glare, so thats a $5 cure....;-)

Mind you, it's not such a problem here in blighty, but oxidisation might be....that car is properly nice; I have serious 'issues' wanting one so much !!! :-D

I agree buddy !

If I ever get rich (yeah,...right) I would polish the body then put 3 coats of clear on it.

Ron just been looking at your album; that is one beautiful pair of cars, and the 66 Alpine reminds me of a car I used to sometimes get a lift to school in during the early 70's!

PM me more about your car for sale, you have me intrigued!!

Steve

These cars have 289 miles and 31 miles on them respectively.

Sure they look pretty in the garage, but is that really the point of getting one?

Karl,

I think you meant to post this in a different thread...

Funny enough a very similar question posed on the UK forum regarding using them 'enough' so my answer is the same here!

'I guess my answer is define enough?
Sometimes I used to go into the garage (usually on a wet cold winter night) and just look at my car; for me, on a crap wet, dark, winter night, that was enough..yet on a nice day a couple of tank fulls hooning around was usually 'enough'; as a mate of mine always says 'a bowl of chocolate ice cream is a real treat; would you want a lorry full?'
As long as you enjoy it, surely that's enough, whether you do a 100 miles or 10,000 miles??'

I have been searching Cobra Country, clubcobra and eBay.

With a preference to brushed aluminum there is not a lot about. ..
