Check this out if you haven't seen it. It's only 9 minutes long and worth watching. A great Cobra and legendary Cobra owner. As cool as it gets, both Cobra and owner.

Picked up a car, now I can begin the journey.
Just arrived, an 82 Aurora Cobra. The story behind the co is pretty wild and I have hundrheds of docs filled with the original paperwork etc. Car drives nice and looks pretty good. Only complaint is I NEED MORE LEG ROOM!!!. Seems taking the seat rail off and bolting to the floor will.pick up a bit. Any suggestions? I am 5 11
and 180. Heres a short vid of the delivery.

Have you started the CA registration process yet? Will you be going the SB100 route?

But its not pre-1975 so aren't you subject to smog inspections?
Unless, if I recall, the Auroras had rear exhaust with cats. Is that correct?
Congrats and welcome to the Cobra community. You're gonna love driving that car.
