I don't own a Cobra, but I got hooked as a kid attending car shows in Northern California. My dad was a ford guy and restored Mustangs and TBirds. Every Sunday in the summer we would be off to one show or the other. When the judges would go to the Cobras I would run over just to hear them fire them up! Classic lines, great history, and the best sounding motors I had ever heard. Dad always told me they cost millions so I thought it would never happen. Then a few years ago Autoweek did a profile on House Of Cobras and I found that "Kit Cars" where not all low quality VW powered garage experements. While a young family keeps me from owning a cobra today, I hope to order one in a few years. In the mean time I dream, study CC, and put togther a different configuration in my head every week.
