Default Atlanta gang

On the way home from work today there was a blue and white stripe cobra, chrome 427 roll bar, and four tail lights. He was traveling south on 53 from Dawsonville toward the 400 at 4:45pm. Anyone out this way?

Don't know who that might be off of 53 but the other on Birmingham Hwy I believe belongs to a fella who lives in Tulamore.

Scott - why was your car up at Grimes a few weeks ago? Are you on the road yet? I was impressed with how low the engine sat in the chassis - very autocrossy looking!

Tony, Yes my car was at Grimes. I wanted him to check it over before it hit the road to verify I hooked everything up properly as well as was it safe. Two hiccups, the front main seal leaks and the clutch won't engage/disengage properly. I spoke to Bill and he said he would take care of it.

Theres a fellow with a Cobra "blue/white stripes" thats at Thunder Road every 2nd saturday of the month at a local car show. Talked to him briefly today at the car show but he was busy getting the burnout competition ready. His is a Unique body on his own custom chasis with a 351 C.

Also there is another one "Superformance" same colors thats up here and he frequents the car show at the Outlet mall.

I haven't quite figured out why we have 2 carshows on the same 2nd saturday of the month in Dawsonville. Seems we could all get together for one big show instead of being split up just a few miles apart.

Tyssen,
How long have you had your Contemporary? What engine do you have? There are no pictures in the gallery. You need to post some. I would like to see your car.

Don
