UFO sighting !!!
Saturday afternoon, I saw a black Cobra w/silver stripes on the side of the road (RR620, near Gregg-ish). So I pull over to assist, and lo and behold, it was Mr. Winkler himself! He's been busy, like many of us, but is doing well, and will try to make one of the upcoming meets.
Cheers,
-Neil.

Why didin't you guys stop!
Since I sold the cobra. I've been having cobra with drawl. I could have at least sat in Winklers car.  Hope to be looking at another cobra pretty soon.

Thinking Aluminum
Blake
I was thinking aluminum. (Parks can you hear me)
Truth be told I really like the 289 FIA car. SO who knows.
I'm having more fun doing research.

Hey I guess I'm a Cobra Geek!
I just need more pocket protectors.
I hope to be pulling the trigger sometime soon on a new ride.
I have to visit Unique this summer.

Thanks for the assist, Neil!
It's less a story of a UFO than one of a good samaritan - Neil followed us (for once my wife was riding shotgun instead of my son!) back to the entrance of Steiner ranch just to make sure we didn't have any more mishaps, even though it was out of his way.
It's been said before many times, but what a great group of people!
I also think he might not have recognized the car since the front fenders are no longer riding 4" above the top of the wheel! One of the reasons (apart from commuting to Houston to work) that I've been hibernating is that I finally replaced my front springs with correct height springs, and even learned how to replace brake rotors.
Now if I could just get the dang Hyfire working - I think it may have gotten heat-soaked one too many times. It's on its way back to Mallory this week to see if they can figure anything out. In the mean time, it still runs with a bypass for the ignition box, so I hope to start to join the gang again.
JLW
PS - I missed Gregg's decision to part with his car - since the "getting rid of" stories are often as interesting as the "getting" stories, is it on the forum (or to interesting to divulge)?
Hope to see everyone soon -
JLW
