[Z-linkCobra]

Tony,

It has taken me 6 yrs to get to the point where I am at with my cobra. There have been plenty of times where it sat and collected dust because of priorities. Bills come first in my household, then play.

I have a good job that pays my bills and just about every penny I have spent on the cobra has come from a second source income. My brother does garage doors for a living. I have spent many a weekend hanging garage doors with him to make cobra money. I have spent many a weekend hauling scrap iron(which pays pretty good now days) to make cobra money. I have a shop behind my house and on weekends and after work I work on other peoples hotrods and frankly whatever again...to make cobra money. There are all sorts of things one can do when motivated enough.

I also am lucky enough to have the skills and certain machinery or access to machinery that afforded me the chance to make a lot of my own stuff for the cobra.

With that being said I did have a wife that I don't have anymore...lol. She was leaving anyway...she just didn't know it...lol. I also have kids and we spent a lot of time racing go karts and doing some circle track racing(priorities...lol).

Long story short, don't be ashamed to take a second job or mow grass or haul scrap iron. Nothing wrong with a hard days labor. One pc of advice...don't let it consume you. If your married and have children don't risk them for the cobra...aint worth it.

Sorry for the long post guys.
