What a great way to retire...
I need to thank my wife for making my dream come true...ever since that first ride in Chicago in 1965. Have 10k miles so far and loving every minute of it. Car has been on the ground since 2002. Enough of this, it's 70 degrees and sunny. Time to warm up the Cobra!!
|
Oh yeah...69 in 30 days!
|
I'm 39 and vote "mid-life crisis", or at least that's what my wife tells me :LOL:
|
I am going to be 64 this month I bought my EM a little less than two years ago I was pondering the purchase My wife said listen we put our two sons through college She said I am retired you youdumb ass will work till your Hundred She said and I quote you have never done one Dumb ass thing in your life go buy the car.so I went to FLA and when I saw the car in person my knee's went weak the rest is history I have just retired and I am looking forward to a lot of time in the cobra.The most important thing to come out of this whole thing is all the great people I have met its be a great experience

29 on Monday :)

46 this year.. Expected to have my Cobra by the time I was 40, but kids and life got in the way.. Wife says it's midlife, I'm ok with that, since I got it! Neighbors call her #1 wife, as she let me get the Cobra, and theirs, not so much! :LOL::LOL::LOL:

I'm 32 and purchased my first Cobra in December of 2011. I've been wanting to build one for 7 or 8 years....while that's still very appealing to me I don't have the patience and am glad I went with a completed build so I can enjoy it now.
|
47. Car should be completed in 4 weeks or so. Won't be 47 years before I get a second one.
GRUFF |
55 last week have owned superformance for 9 years has been great fun lots of excitment / grand children call it the burnout king
|
I'm 57 and have an ERA on order...will be 58 by the time I get it on the road. Looking forward to the entire experience. May sell my Harley if I start ignoring it.
|
57 ....wife said...kids out , go get your damn car!...love that woman....it has been a blast.
|
Turned 70 yesterday
|
I was 44 when I ordered it from Shelby, 46 when it arrived, and 47 when I sold it.
Glad I owned one. |
I take delivery of Backdraft 1109 from Vintage next week and I turned 27 in March.
After an unsuccessful and disappointing attempt at buying back my old 2003 Mustang Cobra last year, I figured that I would swing for the car that I really wanted. And it's been a long year deciding exactly what that special car was. It was an odd day today, when my Uncle, an avid muscle car collector at 60, asked the question..."So wait, it has NO windows???". |
How old!
Turning 60 in two weeks, hope to be getting painted by then!

58 and just getting started with my build.
|
Was 44 yrs old when wanting a V8 motorcycle at the time the kit was $10k thought that was a little too much,so bought my Cobra 1993.Lost my career job the next year,finished the car the year after that and still anxious every time we are ready for a ride.Did sell our Harley after buying the kit,once the car was finished got back into Harleys but groundup built them with big inch motors and the drivetrains to support them.
|
I'm 42. Have wanted one since my 20's, couldn't afford one till my 40's.
|
I'm 64. Saw my first Cobra at S&C Ford in San Francisco 1965. Love at first sight. Just as beautiful in 2012 as it was in 65.
