I know before I was a Cobra owner, long before, the rare siting of one was a big thrill. To actually hear one was a big thrill To see some kid riding passenger in his Dad's Cobra all I could think was "Man how lucky is that kid I wish I was in that seat". So to share the experience with anyone at any level is the least anyone of us can do. The attention can be a pain sometimes but in the scheme of things we have the cars for fun and that is just part of it. Living the dream.

I was getting gas a few weeks ago and a car full of young guys were seriously checking out the Cobra. They pulled up next to me after a few minutes to get a closer look.

The driver was able to see inside the car and see the signature on the glovebox, after which he proceeded to say one of the most amusing and memorable things I've heard in a while (think slang, street dialect)....

"Carroll Shelby.....that's one bad motherf*****"

I smiled, gave them a thumbs up, and they drove off.

On occasion that quote will pop into my mind, and I'll just smile.

Don't know if this is good or bad. While filling up yesterday, the lady at the next pump says, "My what a cute little car"
