Smile 33,500 miles

on one of the trip to the London Cobra Show I rubbed a hole in one of the rear brake lines. Quick stop at WalMart for fluid and clamped the line off till we got to Columbus. Next day I dropped by one of the Jegs store and bought a kit to make the line. A guy in the store lent me the use of his tools and shop to make the brake line.

Replaced three lug nut studs in the parking lot of the Hampton Inn one year.

Burn an alternator up about 50 miles South of Columbus one year. Pulled into a truck stop, unloaded Lainhart's Cobra and loaded mine. Replaced the alternator in the parking lot of the Hampton Inn.

stopped up fuel filter in my home town, tow truck to my shop.
broke a upper control arm about 7 miles from my shop. Coach and I took our trailer and rolled the dead Cobra onto it and headed to my shop.

Some of the guys get torn up when something breaks, I just fix it and drive on.
