Default Great Story - Hats off to the UCC and KMS!

This has been posted on another forum but I thought it would be appropriate over here because it shows what makes the Cobra community so great.

The short story is that a local guy, Paul Berg has been pursuing his dream of building an FFR. Along the way life handed him a tough break and he found out he had cancer. While he fought the cancer, he also fought to build his car. Things took a turn for the worse recently and he found out that he might not have time to finish the car.

The Utah Cobra Club found out that some of Paul's friends and neighbors were going to try and finish the car for him. Roy of the UCC sent out an email asking for help. Dave Kirkham caught wind of the situation and found the car had been sent to warehouse space to be worked on. He volunteered his shop and his crew to take charge of the work.

Yesterday the car was delivered to Paul at Kirkham Motorsports. It was delivered under the guise that Paul and all his friends were going to take a shop tour and then head up to work on the car. The car was hidden outside and at the end of the tour Dave called Paul up and told him there was one more car that they hadn't seen yet. The shop guys opened the overhead door and there was Pauls car in all its finished glory. It took Paul a second to realize that the blue beauty sitting before him was not one of Kirkhams cars, it was his! After a pause it sunk in, "Is that my car?", he asked.

Not many dry eyes in the house. What a great moment. Hats off to all those involved.

Here are some local news stories.
