Peter and Phil Gaudette straightened the chassis, repaired the body and ordered a new door from England. When it arrived, it consisted of a straight piece of round tube and a flat sheet of aluminum... you need to bend and make up the door. So, the decided to repair the original door instead. Peter painted the car black and then, with $60. in his pocket (so the story goes) set out for Colorado and his job as a door knob salesman. The car is still out there, someplace.

Several years ago Peter and I drove out to Elkhardt Lake for the Vintage Races. We stopped by the garage on Deerbrown Road where he had some repair work done. It was still owned by the same owner, who when he saw Peter, said: "F..... Peter, you still owe me $25. for repairing the front A arm on your Cobra."
