What is the LATEST recognition your Cobra has had recently?

[Argess]

Not much recognition....no boob flashes, or much of anything. The 18-20 year olds do look, but that's about it.

For a while I thought it was me, but I was driving through the grocery store parking lot "in my pick-up truck" and had "Party Doll" playing at decent volume. Got a big smile from a good-looking 50ish lady sittng outside on a park bench.

Back to the CObra, I did have some young fellows holler "Way to go old man!" at me as I drove through a parking lot. Must have been the gray hair.

Well, one thing did happen a few years back. I got home to find my wife's female cousin had come to visit. Seems she knew about Cobras as her ex-husband was a car nut. Anyway, she finally let it out she wanted a drive in the car.

I think I turned pale. A nice girl, but somewhere handy of 400 lbs. Butt like two 45 gallon drums strapped together. Just how was I going to get her in the car. For a moment I considered trying to make a large shoehorn out of an old 53 Chev pick-up truck hood I had behind the garage.

So off we went to the garage. My, those Cobra doors looked even smaller than I envisioned them. Somehow, I got her in....and managed to get the door shut. Got her buckled up...thank God the seatbelts were long enough. As I walked aorund the car, I wondered if I could shift into any of the gears to the right in the pattern.

We went for a drive. All good fun. Returned to the garage. She got the warning about the hot sidepipes, recieved instrucitons on how to get out, and amazinlgy did very well, and no burns.

Turned out she had a blast. Made it all worthwhile after all.
