New owner of old Cobra
Hi, Jeff here, I'm in Orlando Fl. I got my Cobra kinda by default. My friend won a Copart Auction and we went and picked it up in Clewiston Fl. We brought the car to my Shop and did an inspection and started tearing it down to see what the car would need since it was a Flood car. The engine had water sitting it it for the 2 plus years it sat at Copart. It was a sad little car and my friend was heart broke at the amount he was going to have to invest, he bought a new engine from Blueprint and a new set of Stainless side pipes and quit thinking about the car. The car sat in my shop for several months until he decided to sell it,,,, no takers for a sad flood car so he made me an offer and I bought it. Another friend and I have been doing Classic Car restos since 2019 and pretty well setup for doing this Cobra. So my Cobra journey begins. I'll post a couple pics of me getting started and will post progress if this thread gets any interest. Hope there is some CR people still watching.
