Between snow and heat we drove 2300 miles since we picked it up on 9/30/2017 from Irvine and drove it home via Las Vegas. It's never easy to get the car down the driveway. Have to move two vehicles carry car ramps down the hill and put everything back before we leave, but it is well worth it. We bought the car to drive, flying up 50 to Tahoe never gets old

Thumbs up

Mine is in storage from Oct. till about April, I also live in Washington State but near Mission Ridge Ski Area about 10 miles south of Wenatchee.

I don't want any attention.... so I drive and fuel the car in the cool early morning hours..... for about two hours ..... once every two weeks or so.

Two or three thousand miles a year. My current replica is a street model with undercar exhaust so it is not as loud as a car with side pipes.

IMHO three hours in one of these cars in the heat or cold and noise is about a hour to long.

I drive the back roads at speeds between 30 and 75 mph and it is always a thrill..no trips, if I want to take it somewhere, I trailer it.

I typically drive my SPF in the Spring and Fall or early in the morning during the Summer. Summer driving in the Cobra is approaching torture due to the 100 degree plus days here in Northern CA. I'd like to drive it more in the Summer but I don't want to clear out the neighborhood with my aroma after a hot Summer drive😝

So you have the "time machine" I named my business after! Can you let me know what the market does over the next sixty days so I can manipulate it and make big bucks!

Drove the 289 into Canada today to visit Ross, the "Father of all SPF/Shelby 289s" and do some winery quality control. Again, more miles, more smiles. Even my wife likes this car! Had a US Customs agent tell me "Nice ride!"
