I was mezmorized by the Cobra, but my cousin had a 66 GT350 that I got to take care of while he was off to far east. I drove that car for a year, and had the time of my life. He sold the car shortly after he got back. I could nor afford the price. He traded it in on a 70 Chevelle SS....go figure. Not too long after that I picked up a lightweight Galaxie, but no one really knew what they were back then, just a very fast land yacht. Boy hindsight is always 20/20. I recently gave a young boy a ride who ran up to my cobra and was saying I know what this car is....a Shelby Cobra. He was just so excited as he never saw one up close. He was with a gentleman in a motorized wheel chair. He asked if he could take a picture of him neer the car, so I said lets do one better than that. I gave him a short ride, and he took many pictures, but it was that ear to ear grin that was the best part.
