Hi! New to the site and honestly don't know much about cars - I'm more exposed to the import scene overall, but regardless of that, I can't help but think the Cobra was/is one of the sexiest cars ever made. My ex's dad used to (maybe still does?) build kit cars in north Houston so that's where it started.
I was surfin' the web and came across this thread. Just wanted to share that my fiancee and I will be in Vegas getting married during SEMA week (not a coincidence, haha), but of course, none of our 'car' friends can help us get into the show. We even went on a limb and sent Chip Foose an e-mail to see if he would marry us (who needs Elvis, right?), but no go on that one.
It was worth a shot...
As for some advise on hotels, etc, we got a great deal through
www.vegas.com (air+hotel is a much better deal than just air or hotel). We're flying from Austin, staying 5 nights at the Aladdin and have a rental car, all for $1400, which doesn't seem that bad considering the outrageous nightly rates around that area.
Anyway, I just wanted to say hi to all and hopefully I can learn a few things here and there when I have time and one day, be able to have a Cobra of my own.
Dave, you mentioned Shelby Cobra being a few miles north of Vegas. You have any other info on that? Would love to check it out while I'm there... thanks!
