Very artsy. Is "son" still a kid, or is he fully grown? That's nicely done. |

P.S. Great taste with the GT !!! I love mine.
P.P.S. Thank you for your service to Our Country. I got fed up with the holiday gift gathering at work and decided to give all of my Holiday charity contributions to Wreaths Across America.

Tony: don't thank me. It was my dad that served. First Ranger Battalion WWII. I'm just a Ranger fan and junkie.
Thanks for giving though. It's important. Saw an old Marine vet sitting by himself in Ihop. Saw the Globe & Anchor tat on his forearm. ( clearly WWII from his age). Walked up and thanked him for his service. He lit up like a Christmas tree. It was clear it meant a lot to him that his effort was appreciated. It's the least we can do.

Those guys saved civilization as we know it. I don't see many that age any more. My favorite was my Code Talker - one of the original 29. I was also saddened by Sen. Inouye's passing this week. I didn't always agree with his politics but as a Medal of Honor winner he got my respect. And all the presidents Salute.

Sidepipes
Wow! I think Stephen Tyler should be proud to have Aerosmith as the opening act for something that sounds like that! That is THE sound that I think so many want to achieve...deep, throaty rumble that just kind of sneaks up on you as you roll on the throttle.
From your info about the car in your name heading, you list that it has a 427 SO with dual quads. Could you give some details about the headers and sidepipes (ie., source of purchase, inside and outside diameter, length, straight through or any baffling or sound deadening material, etc.)?

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different rumble. Let him step to the sidepipes which he hears, however measured or far away. - H.D. Thoreau...if he had owned a Cobra

Thanks for the comments.
There is no baffling in the pipes. As to the exact specifics as to diameter etc call and speak to Billy Andrews at HRE Motorcars. He knows the car very well worked on and put the pipes on. I will post some basic measurements this weekend.

I dig the Elmer Fudd hat. That's cool.
Shoes are made of hemp. |

All BS aside...damn nice video! The "old girl" still looks good, Evan. 
As for the gloves...you are not alone, although I prefer long black ones on the lady. Oh my.

Nice video and beautiful car, Evan. 
But I must ask (because you seem pretty meticulate), why you left the 'SHELBY S/C' badges instead of '427 COBRA FORD' ones?

Fantasy can be good. To an extent I think most here are driving/ own cars of their dreams.
Yes, Ron likes to bust my balls. We go way back. One of most fun times in my Cobra is when we travelled to Ohio for the Spring Fling Cobra event. We trailered the Cobra out there and it was as pristine as in the video but by the time we were done tearing around the Ohio country side in it it looked nearly as filthy as as Bannon's Cobra in Gumball but it was a blast. Took me a week to clean it.
Jamo and others. Thanks. Glad you guys liked the vid.
Rodeym: Didn't change the side badges as they're standard fare on Continuation Cobras and that's what it is.

Smacks of self-promotion to me.
And stop obsessing on the Bannon character in Gumball. Holy cow.  |

Excellent video...great looking car...superb choice on sound track. Next time fade the music as you spark her up and you'll have 100,000 hits in no time.
