New LAE Owner

[Jim Barnett]

Well, I'm now OFFICIALLY a new LAE Cobra owner!!! It is an older LAE, BUT it is a VERY NICE car. The owner/builder had to move to Illinois and didn't want to take the car with him. He did a GREAT job building it! It has a rebuilt 351C, 5 speed, narrowed 9" Ford rear end, Flaming River rack and pinion, 4 wheel disk brakes, D/S chrome roll bar, over-riders, hood latches, and PSE wheels with near new Goodyear Eagle GTII tires, Guardsman Blue with white stripes. Car seems to run great. I am so happy that I was fortunate enough to find another cobra as fast as I did. I am a little sad that I didn't find another CR version since I met many great folks over on that forum, BUT I know there are just as many here on this B&B forum and I'm glad that I am now amongst your ranks. Now I need to add a few things to my new-old car that I already have on order and I'll be even happier (front and rear bumpers, Moto-Lita Steering wheel, original style gauges). My car is NOT a SHOW CAR by any means, BUT I wanted one to DRIVE and have FUN with. NOW I got one) I'll post some pictures as soon as I take some (hopefully this weekend).
