Thanks Gary. NY has been a huge mess for yrs. Remember when they went to multi docs needed to register things. What a pain. We spent lots of time and became friendly with the DMV people in Saranac so it helped since it was nuts when they first adopted that. I am thinking if all goes well I might come up into the area in late August / early Sept. The roads up there are awesome but over 35 yrs it our trucks pulling things. I did drive up there twice with some of our fun cars and wow it was awesome.

Cheers!

Thanks, it was long journey from when I was a 24 yr old wanting one when I visited ERA to pick up a 427 that our family friend purchased. I was finally able to buy one 24 yrs later and I am finally happily motoring along.... :)

Thanks Buzz, it sure is fun and basic compared to my other toys... ok not as bad as my 1943 Diamond T M3 Half-Track.... now that is rough ride, has no pick up and is slow as heck but fun to drive. Still not sure why I get such strange looks when cruising along in it. hahaha

Wow Rob, any other toys that are mentionable?
The mention of a Diamond T has my attention....my first drive - assisted - on the road (at around 5 years of age) was in my Dad's 1937 Diamond T :)
I still have a reminder in my garage...
Cheers!

Beautiful ERA Cobra
I am new to the forum and this is my first post. Your cobra is beautiful!! You are going to have so much fun, adrenaline rushes, and make many new friends. I speak from experience. I also purchased an ERA 289 FIA car some years ago but have never posted pictures. I have many smiles to the mile and also some nail biters. Once I am more familiar with the Club Cobra site I will post pictures.

Hey rlrichins! Welcome to the forum.
Start a thread on the ERA forum ... ERA---Speak with Bob Putnam - Club Cobra ... and post some pictures of your car.
I've always been a fan of ERA's cars, and had intended importing a car to Australia a few years ago, but import restriction kyboshed it.
Cheers!
