Must have been 10's of thousands of classic cars there cruising a 10-15 mile four lane road that used to have street racing in the 70's & 80's - classic Woodward Avenue! Funny thing was our old Solex's got as much attention as the classic cars ......
I Like Cobra's if you can tell! |
Don't know how I missed this one, but cool photos and I really dig 572's Cobra! Hey 572, you interested in getting a 28? :D
My buddy had a pair of the FFR spec racers. They were good looking cars and seemed well engineered. I saw one of their Cobra kids out in Vegas (at the track) about 4 years ago. Very cool car! The Daytona Coupe was, for a very long time, my #1 "if I won the powerball" car... It's #2 on my list now, but still sure as shibby wouldn't kick it outta bed for eatin' crackers! :D |

I was actually supposed to be up at the Monterey Historics that weekend and Friday morning we had a major plumbing failure (in my house not in me! :D ) and I ended up speeding the weekend with roto-rooter and the city DPW...
I've really been getting a nose for a Cobra lately too... My inability to focus on one thing protects me from doing anything though. I also have been itching for a Z06 and another race car! :D You know what Confucious says... A smart man learns from his mistakes, a wise man learns from the mistakes of others... and a dummy like me never learns! |

I know if I buy a Cobra and a race car, that I'll be living outside tomorrow! :D But we'll see... I've got my eye on a few things! :D

Hey Sean , I seen this & just couldn't resist Greg is just not "right" he is the only dude I have known to actually go from a 28' Pantera down to a 24'... I think he likes the 24 b/c he can see over the dash better... LOL.. :D Now that I think about it maybe he is the only one around here smart enough to relize that he is actually making a step towards progress by going down in size, With the ultimate goal of being completley set free from this horrendous addiction...lol... |
Scotty, man that killed me! Too funny! :D Next step is one of those air entrapment hulled zodiacs! HA HA HA!

Hey guys, no 28 in my plans for now. I really do enjoy driving my 24 and just have not had much chance to do it with the ITS.
Looks like the Cobra will be heading to Poland in a month or so. The Cobra is a blast two drive also but 200 miles in two years. Time to turn it into cash! :drink: Greg |
