Ernie,

I would think the worst thing anyone could ask you about your Cobra is WHERE IS IT ?

I have had the usual is it the same kind of car James Dean was killed in, is it real, is it a Falcon, & etc. Two drunks actually got into a fight over wheather it was a Falcon or Comet and the cops hauled them away. Obviously mine doesn't resemble an original Cobra in many ways.

I guess the worst one was when I was sitting in my chair at a charity meet reading a magazine and some woman came up and started cussing me for bringing that dammed plastic piece of **** to the meet. She raved on for about 10 minutes about people that wanted to be important and their phony plastic cars and they don't belong in their class, meaning hers. I just followed her over to see what she had .There set her and her husbands genuine original 1932 Ford, Coddington whees, Super Interior, really was as it took best interior of show. Real steel body except the four fenders, running board, trunk lid and part of grill work was fiberglass. Also I didn't know that 1932 Fords came with digital dashes but theirs did.

I guess I will really be different and make a car out of wood and card board.

Ron
