Back In The Saddle Again!
Well partners, I'm happy to report that I'm Back In The Saddle again - as I just put deposit down on new Superformance Cobra that Doug Reed just got in. SPF # 1543. Could not post pics here but there are three in my gallery, for you to take a look at.
Wheels on the pic are not the wheels I'm getting. Should get the car either week on Tulsa or the following..........
Motor still un-decided but talking with Keith and Drew? More details to be discussed at lunch and tour of Keith Craft Motorsports in Plano - Saturday!!!!!!!

Way to go, Gary!!!
Gary,
I am glad you worked out that car with Doug, because I think it will be/is STUNNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Once again, I have a feeling you are going to set the bar even higher for our club. I can't wait to see the actual car!
Congratulations, old friend!!

Gary, I'm glad you made that choice, I was worried about that Pantera thing. They are tough to live with.

Gary,
I think that may be the first time I have ever heard (or seen) the word SUBTLE used in realation to a Cobra.
Still..it is a pretty car. Good Luck.
Have a good one,
Dan

Very nice!
But if I might ask, why did first one get sold? How is this one different?
Thanks.

This will actually be my 4th Cobra. Your question of why the last one got sold was; I really didn't have it for sale and someone made me one of those offers I couldn't refuse. I knew I'd do another one as I also enjoy putting the project together and actually do the engine/trans install.
