Doug Pratt, RIP
« on: June 26, 2019, 02:57:35 AM »
I would like to report the passing of Doug Pratt. Doug was an San Diego area Cobra guy that had worked on many local Cobras, both original and otherwise. He was always willing to give his assistance to whomever needed it and no matter what the make or model was. God speed Doug, you will be missed.

I met Doug in 2000 in California while attending a business function, he was truly a down to earth automotive enthusiast. Loved talking about the car and the people around him.

Rest in peace my friend, rest in peace.

When these guys leave us it's like burning a library of knowledge.  Very disturbing.
"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"
