Hi Mike!
Congrats on your Cobra purchase and on your choice of manufacturer. I ordered my car in 2002, but it wasn’t on the road until 2004. I see that you are in WI and wanted to let you know about perhaps joining SCOF. I believe membership is around 350 strong and it’s a great place to ask questions, access the tech library or stay up to date with any planned Superformance car drives. Randall runs the show and has a cobra business in WI. (Cobra valley) I’m glad Blas helped you out with your questions. Randall has access to the same info if not more.
I hope you enjoy your Cobra and the joys it will bring you behind the wheel. Have fun making memories!!

Cheers,
Gene

N2Cobras liked post by S1965C On thread : Big news on 15" performance tires!

Sidewall states "295/50R15 108V CVR5" so I'd call it a radial. To the right of that and closer to the inside circumference it states "DOT 1UBMV" or "DOT 1U8MV", followed by date codes "9496 4723."...

I know things are different now, but back in the '60s, there is no way that Shelby would have been spending the '60s equivalent of $18k, let alone $50k, on the paintwork for a new Cobra. If we...

Of course there is the benefit of a standard over an automatic in that nobody in their 20's or younger will be able to steal it, as they will be clueless on how to drive it :rolleyes:
