Big Thanks to Warrick Harrison
Just a big thanks to Warrick today.
We were down on the Coast today and the car was looking bloody good and feeling just as good (picked up a trophy the previous week at the local car show).
Well, right in the middle of Surfers, the engine belt almost fell off after a support bracket bolt sheared off leaving a bit of the bolt in the block.
Rang round (Scotty) who gave me Spook's and Warricks number. Unable to get Spook, but Warrick was in so the plan was to piggy back it to his place.
RACQ did the business and picked the car up (went on the back with some wooden blocks to help out on the clearance) and an hour later Warrick had us heading back to the beach - Big thanks mate 
The car drew some attention whilst waiting for the towie including:
A rather shabby guy who wanted to borrow the car for an hour to guarantee a root!!!
An American who owns a number of Rolls Royce's.
A muslim family who just wanted their pics taken next to it.
A local hoon who offered a push start if that was what our problem was.
As well as plenty of other non descript people - I was bloody worn out talking to them all 
Great cars these COBRA's - Nothing like them

Yeah, that's Warwick to a tee. Always happy to lend a hand to help out club members. (Even if they own the competitors product  )
Glad it was a quick and easy fix for Warwick.
Peter, I've dropped your post into News section of the QLD Club Site, hope that's ok. |

No worries Craig.
Warick thought I had an RMC!
Great opportunity to see a couple of Daytona's in their early stage

Two chassis on the ground and one body up on top of the office.
In their early stages, but the body looked pretty good.

Congrats on the purchase. We just love those Daytona's. 
Having a tilt front clip is pretty cool as well.
Now, just got to talk club members into allowing them to compete directly with the Cobras at Nationals etc. They are the only close relative of the Cobra and in my books they are no different, same chassis, just a different shaped body. (now that will stir up some trouble)
I expect more people would be interested in them, if they were considered in the same class. Plus you can have a half or full roll cage without spoiling any of the beautiful body lines. Combined with tilt front end & roof, makes for a great track car.

Warwick did say that one was travelling south.
Pretty sure the other will be for himself as no current cobra's to his name now that the track Cobra has gone to the man with the beard
