A friend of mine built a Cobra a number of years ago and I was always hanging around helping if I could or just taking it all in.

I had some pretty fun cars over the years and had rides in some pretty fast stuff, but I enjoyed the blasts in his Cobra better than most any of them.
So when it went up for sale I bought it.

I am more of a sports car guy than a muscle car guy and the high point of my summers is going to vintage races at Road America. The Cobra gives me a decent taste of that on a regular basis and it fits in at just about any gathering, be it street rods, muscle cars, sports cars or autocrossing.

And I kind of like the attention too. I wasn't used to that being something of an abominable snowman myself.
