    I am now one of you :)

    After a long time dreaming about it, I finally have a Factory Five AC Cobra
    One day I would like to build my own when my kids are older. For now this will give me something to play with.

    Where are you located? You could have some fellow owners around the corner and not even know it.

    You sure it's not a Bugatti under there?

    It might be a Chevy Powered Cobra which is likely causing him distress, anguish and maybe some shame.

    Sorry Steve but you can't set up a cheap shot like that and not expect me to take it (even though I approve of your Chev-obra)
