60,000 Miles on my Cobra!
This past weekend saw my Cobra's odometer tick over the 60,000 mile marker. It was on Hwy 33 headed south, into Ventura from Ojai, after a drive from John Wais's Tri-County Cobras lunch in Ventura.
I have had the Cobra 5 1/2 years, and there was but a mere 12,700 miles on the car from its previous owner. It is a "warmed" 351W, T-5, and 3.08 gears. Needless to say, I DO drive this Cobra, with three trips to the Western States Cobra Bash, but almost all of the miles are in the Los Angeles/Orange/Ventura/San Berdoo counties here around L.A. I have the stone chips and the worn leather seats to remind me of what a neat little car this Cobra has turned out to be, but it's really about the "Smiles per Gallon", and not the "Miles per Gallon"!!! lol !!! |
Awsome, I hope that when I get mine done I will be able to drive it enough to put some good miles on it. I am building mine to drive, not set around in the garage and be nothing nut a show car.

Bravo Sharrol,
I am sorry I missed the tri county get together. Coaching soccer on Saturdays takes priority. I am hoping to be at the next one though. The cruise with multiple Cobras sure turns peoples heads...Fun! 60K is impressive! John |
Raising my glass (literrally) to Sharroll Celby...the ultimate Cobra road warrior!!:D :D
Your profile doesn't list your car type...what is it? My wife and I love Ojai. My folks live in Southern California, so we usually meet in Ojai or Santa Barbara for Christmas...and golf. |
Yup, thats very cool. CONGRATS!
|
Bravo, Edley (if that really truly is your real name...). ;)

Congrats !!! 60,000 is a MAJOR milepost.:D
|
WOW! 60K is amazing, is the Cobra your daily driver? You should have all the bugs out by now! :D
|
I drive the Cobra EVERY weekend, and once or twice during the week. The weekend trips usually last a minimum of 100-150 miles, be it to the beach in Malibu or Huntington Beach, or just cruising the Angeles Crest Highway for breakfast in the mornings.
