Default Worst Cobra Xmas Present

When my brother-in-law became a chopper pilot and started his own helicopter charter company, the very next Christmas he got practically all helicopter-themed gifts. Helicopter socks, helicopter phone... you name it. Not all of it was all that er... uh.. "useful."

Now that I am a soon-to-be Cobra owner, I have been receiving suspicious pre-Christmas Cobra-related phone calls from some of my relatives. In hopes that it's not too late to drop some not-too-subtle hints to prevent the same thing from happening to me, I thought I would turn to my Cobra-owning brothers and sisters to find out what I *DON'T* want for Christmas from my well-meaning but misguided friends and families.

Lurk,

You see, this is Club Cobra. We LOVE Cobras. There is nothing with a Cobra on it that I wouldn't like to have. More than a quarter of the shirts in my closet are Cobra or race related. I've even built a Rally computer with Cobra emblem knobs.

If you get stuck with any Cobra stuff you don't want, just let us know. We will take it off your hands.

Paul

I recieved my x-mas present from my sister this past monday (she sent everyone their gifts early because they are going down to florida for the next 3 weeks). It's a car cover for a "Cobra"...... a MUSTANG Cobra.
Oh well........it's the thought that counts.

The worst? Probably a title to a Cobra with someone else's name on it!

The worst present is not having a Cobra to drive. Mine Cobra is getting some work done at Ford Racing this Winter while we are remodeling the house and garage. I even miss being able to look at it.

My Christmas present came a little early this year in the form of a message from my mechanic. He announced that he had found the source of my oil burning problem - two broken pistons. ..Soooo, you are no doubt asking, how is that a Christmas present? It gave me an excuse to go shopping for a stroker kit. After all, every cloud has a silver lining.

Hey, I just bought a 2003 SVT Cobra. Interested in selling your wrong gift (cheap!)?
