Not going to happen
« on: May 28, 2019, 02:19:46 PM »
Finally decided I'm not ever going to get Shelby AC Cobra powered by Ford.

Having saved a badge from The Cobra Club for over 45 years, put it on the FFR. Probably only a handful of people will even recognize it.

I recognize it. I left mine on my 289 (CSX 2306) when I sold it. And the man responsible for The Cobra Club, Bruce Jodar, is now into Ferraris rather than Cobras. With time comes change...

I'm sure there are a few of us (me included) who own an F car.  And, while they are very fun machines, there's nothing like a Cobra...or Cobra/Shelby people.

I believe that I have two of those badges. One the paint completely peeled off of. I think it won't be on the car for very long John. Those things are like the Pink Panther.

Bruce must have done well, if he is able to have Ferraris.
