Default Wish I had a camera with me !

Every thursday nite there is a Cruise In at the Sonic Burger in Morgantown Pa and you never know what will show up.
There are usually a Backdraft Cobra and a Factory 5 along with an amazing assortment of Muscle cars,street rods ,and assorted hot rods,as many as 200 plus cars can fit the lot and it generally fills up quickly.
This thursday a black original 427 AC Cobra(the after Shelby Cobra ) all aluminum wearing it's race tires showed up.Stunning!
Then like icing on a cake a Kirkham 289 Cobra with wagon wheels,flawless black paint with white stripes,saddle tan interior,and sporting a 347 with Webbers rolled in.
Sure made my day!

Interesting, I know the Kirkham owner (he also has an older AC MK IV), cannot say the CSX4000 series rings a bell for the area (what did the plate read). The Burgundy Backdraft owner is a really nice guy, saw him a few weeks ago at the Pottstown cruise.

You are probably like me. I carry a cell phone and forget that it has a camera on it.

perhaps I misspoke,the AC car was described as being built by AC in the late 60's
It has a very unusual set of sidepipes,dual outlet shorties on both sides.
And, Scotty ,the owner of the Backdraft is a great guy to talk to.
Why don't you bring one of your cars down on a thursday and look me up.

Sounds like a good ride the next time I'm in Philly. An hour ride each way is a better way to spend an evening instead of sitting in the hotel room. I was working at the Hospital of the University of Penn today and I walk out in to the lot across the street where my rental is and what do I find? There was a Roush BDR sitting next to my rental. Best of all the owner walked out about the same as I did. We talked for a few minutes he didn't know it was a BDR just kept calling it a Roush. It was 1163 IIRC... Nice black with silver stripes.
