Hi, I've been lurking on this site for the past few months, and I thought I'd take the opportunity to introduce myself. In September I bought a five-year-old Superformance Cobra from a private seller in Washington state. Since then, I've experienced both the joy of driving it and the frustration of registering it in the State of California. (I made it through the bureaucracy eventually, and I'd be happy to offer advice to others in the same situation. :)) I've made one significant change to the car since purchasing it, which was having a local mechanic install a fuel injection kit.

I'd be interested in hearing about Cobra events and other classic car events in the Bay Area.

Derek,

Welcome and congratulations on the Superformance! Keep and eye out in the Bay Area forum for upcoming breakfasts and drives. A popular South Bay breakast run is to meet in Saratoga and then drive up to Alice's in Woodside for breakfast. The group also meets at Baji's in Mountain View for breakfast from time to time.

Derek Welcome!!

There are lots of things to do here and quite a few Cobra & SPF owners. We also have an active Shelby club that has a decent amount of events. I would love to meet up and see your car at a breakfast or something. I am in Mountain View as well. Watch the Bay Area Cobra Club forum for breakfast information and feel free to contact myself or any of the locals for any help you may need. Welcome!!

Hi Derek --

I live in Auburn, CA and am getting ready to purchase a Backdraft Cobra from out-of-state. I've tried to do my best research on the SB100 process, but would welcome any helpful hints you might provide.

If I purchase a previously titled car, to I just need the title and bill of sale? There is no "mileage" requirement for a re-sale to be qualified as smog exempt?

Any feedback is helpful!!

Jeff
