Default Home and ready to go!!

Well as some of you know I was deployed for the past five months.
Well I am now home and fired up the cobra. Tap of the go go pedal and a turn of the key and she fired right up.
Now lets see if I can get a dry day to piss off some people.

Question: I would like to have the vintage look of the Goodyear tire but my wheel size is 16". I have vett hubs and no room to go to a 15" wheel. Does anyone make a white lettered tire that looks period?

I pulled the 302 325 HP out of my cobra and sent it to be built to a 425/450 HP stroker, good move or bad move? My cobra is a Everett-Morrison and in superb condition. The weak spot to me was the motor. Open the hood and all you see is empty space. Kim Barr, a race engine builder in Tacoma said that a cobra's engine should pound the ground not just pat it. I agreed and away it went.

Thank's
Jim

Hi John. A few weeks a few of us went to the Barrett-Jackson and spent the week. I visited a cobra shop just a short distance from the Auction. They had a lot of nice Superformance cobras and a nice 289. You may know the place.
