We need MORE engine blogs, there few and far between.

So the car turned out to be a nice little 'investment' after all, and darn few of us can say THAT! What rear gear and trans are you running? IF top loader, Close or Wide ratio? What cam? Will it run in the 11's at the 1/4 mile (if not, stay under the porch).
I'm using a 5-speed Tremec tranny w/3.54 rear end. I don't know if it will run 11's, but I'll stay close to the porch for awhile until I find out!

These cars sure are sweeter once the pressure of waiting for delivery ends! My future is so bright, "I gotta wear shades"!

P.S. Thanks Jamo, I sure will!
Yeah Ernie, I got lucky on this one, as it turns out. I usually buy high and sell low, this was an anomaly for sure!

Nice looking car, jdog. You're going to have a bunch of fun. Nice fish too, BTW! Don't see many of those on CC.

Red face I think she knows!

I posted this on the Cobra recognition post but I thought it belonged here also:
"I've only had my Cobra since last weekend, I brought it home on Sat. Thank you very much. So this evening after dinner I wander out to the garage to spend a little quality quiet time with my car, while my wife watches the latest episode of American Survivor or what ever on TV.

After about 20 min. my dear sweet wife of 30+ years comes out and sits in the car. She looks around the car and says:
"This is a beautiful car, If I ever catch you ****ing around, I will own this and my attorney will be driving it!" and walks out!

I think she knows!

jdog,
My wife and I are sitting on the couch and I showed her your post (ooh, that sounds bad). We both had a good laugh. She's still laughing. Me, not so much... BTW, CONGRATS!!!!!!!! on getting your baby home!
