About 3 years ago I was out cruising through the nearby foothills and rolled into a very small community that I use for a destination point as it has a very cool 50's Diner with fantastic Chocolate Malts Pastrami Sandwiches. I was creeping along and ahead on the two lane road that runs through town was a guy in a pickup stopped who had his hand out attempting to flag me down. As I rolled up next to him he asked if I wanted some Sunvisors. Sure, why turn down free parts. I followed him to his nearby home whis sits on the top of one of the nearby hills. We started talking Cobras and on the wall in his garage was a 289 Eggcrate Grill, he said he had a wrinkled up front end for a 289 on the property as well. He said he had owned the Honey West car and raced it extensively in the early 80's. I seem to run into him often when I revist the community.
