Gregg, I am just trying to organise myself,
I am sure most people are getting sick of my rego progress, and as helpfull as Enklemanns are being in trying to get my car through rego, I feel they are a little sceptical in using a 3rd party up here in Alice Springs (they still have not said no to the option).
I am getting involved in the Chrysler car scene and there is a very major show weekend on in Albury on the 13th and 14th of March.
I am now thinking of taking 3 weeks or more off work and towing the Cobra to Enklemann's, get them to inspect for rego around the 11th March, store the Cobra at Mum's and head up to Albury for the Chrysler car show.
Here is the car I will use for towing and cruising at the show.



These pics are from the day I bought it home, it was my wife's Uncles car and was originally converted into a hearse.

I am fixing a few of the dents and scrapes and also just this morning bought a Celica 5 spd conversion kit for it, and have a local guy who is willing to sell me a disk brake front end for it.
It is a genuine 36000 mile car.
So I can get the Cobra inspected (in rego trim) then go to Chrysler show and then get the Cobra ready for ShelbyFest the following week.
There is also some Valiant Charger stuff in Melbourne I need to pick up (bulky interior trim stuff)
