If you had a Cobra replica to drive for 24 hrs or so ,where is ideal place?
I first posed a similar question about renting one for 10 days, but at rental costs of $200-300 a day,plus a cost per mile, this is out, now maybe even one week is out but
maybe 1-2 days is doable.
Now the question is, if I am doing it to write about the experience, where is the ultimate place to drive it that you would think would offer some good photo ops ? So far I am noodling about the following possibilities
-up highway 1 from Cambria to Monterey
-from SF to mendocino
-from Phoenix to Sedona
-in Monterey during the Thursday of historic week when there's a whole lot goin' on, from auctions to race practice
-around wherever a big convention is featuring lots of Cobras (in which case it might get "lost" in a sea of identical cars...)
Any other suggestions?
I haven't got a good model for a book but there is a book called A Road Trip Journal by Stephen Shore where he meticulously documents a trip across the US. I am advertising to find a bookstore in SoCal that has the book so I can see it, I guess at $250 each they aren't ordering too many
