Our police station is right next to my upper lot and about 200' from my driveway. Many of our police are car guys and they always look when they pull out to see if my garage door is open. I have taken pictures of the 69 in front of the station and then they all came out to look it over.

As for car shows, the 69 Cobra goes into the stock class and the special construction class as that is what they have to be registered as in this state. I have never had a problem when I took any of mine to a show except once when some guy with a Corvette threatened to leave if they made him park next to the Cobras.

In my case, as I think I have said on another thread, all the local cops know the car well and actually have pics of it at their station. Fortunately, they are car guys. When I have it out to play, they said they call each other on the radio because they can hear it several blocks away. Pretty hard to hide, especially when you have a couple of big #5's on it. When I stop for gas, it's always something of an event.
