"Online Cobra bullies"? Meeeow

I honestly think he should buy the motorhome. Does that make me an "Online Motorhome Bully"?

Speaking of felines, I think you should go check the mail and see if there's a coupon there for cat supplies at Midtown Petco.

Butterfly kips?!? Didn't Bob Carlisle have a song about them?

I own an awesome tool set, "my old man is a TV repairman," but more importantly, I have a credit card and a check book too.

Yep, if you want to get your Cobra repaired, butterfly kisses is probably as good a first step as any.

Boy! I thought I was in bad shape after crashing breaking my hip and back on my dirt bike and having to be air lifted out of the Mojave desert about five months ago. I just wish I could find a superformance blue white stripes 351 stroked to 427 like new sb-100 in California for 65k! Then I would not be hanging around hear listening to all you so called cobra owners *****in and complaining about every little thing ! Get your asses out and go drive your freaking cars !

Seriously, you won't have to wait too long. Just sit tight, with Spring and Summer, you'll find more on the market.

Good advice, and with every passing day that desire of yours will wane. With a little luck, in time you won't want one at all.

I think the color combo and SB100 exemption should be relatively easy to find here in CA in the next few months, but finding a seller who's NOT full of $hit, especially a Cobra seller, could prove difficult.

Nope, I've come full circle. I think a Cobra is absolutely, positively the wrong choice for him. A Corvette, Porsche, or better yet, an old Mercedes convertible... but not a Cobra.

A vintage air-cooled Porsche is only for the most cultured among us.

You must mean a Boxster, Cayman or Cayenne for the less sophisticated part of our society.

Hauss,
It would be easy to read this as an attempt to insult, but knowing Patrick as we do he's actually trying to help you.

Owning/driving a cobra is a little bit like owning a yatch.
By that I mean the image of a yatch on the calm sea drifting peacefully toward the sunset seems appealing and idyllic.
But in reality it can be anything but. The boat is rocking, your skin is suffering 3rd degree sun and wind burn, the sea spray is annoying and unpleasant, you feel wet and cold despite the sun burn, and you are feeling sick in the guts trying not to puke.

It's not for everyone. Only you can decide if it's for you.
These guys are not dream killers, they just don't want you to make the same mistake many before you have.

FWIW SPF are a solid option. At $65k and blue, should be easy enough to find, give it some time.

Don't know the woman sitting on the car, but that 1965 356 Cab is worth a ton of money, although the paint job is probably just notch above beige.

Jeez, you don't know Janis, you don't know CCR, I remember from a previous thread that you didn't know who Donovan was, when I had that thread where all my posts were plays on Traffic songs, you didn't get that. OK, I'm going to make it easy for you and go straight to Partridge Family tunes, just so you can play along.
