I have a new grandson. He was born Sunday night weighing in at 7lbs 15 oz. Now I have two grandsons to help with the car.

CONGRATULATIONS! You might want to add a rumble seat to your cobra, which would really make it a Unique Cobra.

Sandy and I just got the call this morning. Our oldest son and his wife have a baby girl. 7 lbs 6 oz. All are healthy and that's all I ever asked for. I've all ready threatened to start her out on some Craftsman wrenches. Mostly boys in our family, and not to interested in cars. I'll try again, this time earlier.
shirt for tyke presented first, last night.Congrats, friend--good health is the only word.Can hardly wait to get-off-work time-will take mom flowers and baby girl flowers-pink bow.Will-alabama
First congradulations to yawl also. I have two grandsons but the suprise came when we brought the Cobra home. We have a 16 month old grandaughter to. When she saw the car in the shop she climbed in stood on the seat, grabbed the wheel and started turning it back and forth. I would have sworn she was making vroom vroom sounds but my wife told me I was wrong
I will spoil her anyway, just for fun.
Congratulations you both, Will and Diego. We have 7 little buggers and love'um dearly! Diego tell your wife that from our experience they do Vroom Vroom! We have a couple of young teens vying for Poppie's car! They love to work with me on projects, like the car, and these two are girls! If I can keep them focused and close to us during those teen years we will feel blessed.
We always seem to do better with the grandbabies than thier parents... We remember the kids behaviors as they grew up and this is sweet revenge, we spoil'em (as we should) and send them home!!
Best to you both
Ralph
thanks---buddy has grandson all at a car show, grandson pitched a fit to be in drivers seat pretending he was driving--after a while got out and started running onlookers away from grandpaw,s car.Got me a grandgirl,Ralph, gonna show her off at the forge this fall.Will-alabama
Congratulations Will, glad to hear baby, mom, dad and Grandpa are doing well.
Gary
Hope to see you there Will!

Will, Zack, Diego, Dave,
Congrats to all. Any names to go with the grandkids?
I had my 7 grandkids here this weekend on the Gulf of Mexico beach. I felt like that silver backed Gorilla where all the little ones are climbing all over you. Great feeling to love and be loved so much.

Dakota Wayne Lockley, the oldest, fears nothing. He makes these Blue Heelers do whatever he wants.
Erica Merrill Lockley, the middle one. The grandaughter that likes the car.
Jason Lynn Lockley. The newest addition. He can't walk talk or wipe his own butt yet so we have a long way to go with him.
I will spoil them all, revenge is sweet.
you have 7 grand children? Wow,I bet you did have a great time with them where you live. Ya,ll Jerry, has the gulf, lake inland, adjoining his house, has a wall to hold waves back. And you know he did have a great time with those 7. Passing out sugar and sweet-talk.Can,t beat it. Do they like the gt-40 or the cobra best?Will-alabama
Will,
Yes, we had a geat time. It was a little too great for me however as I ended up with a sun burn chasing one then the other all day. Luckily, nothing severe, just enough to feel a little discomfort and remind me not to stay out too long in the sun without putting a lot of sunblock on. The grandkids seem to like both cars the same. They get huge smiles on their faces or that look of terror when granddad takes them for a spin. Just kidding about the terror part, grandad drives very cautiously when the grandkids are riding. They are 2-13 years old, half boys and half girls, so their perceptions of fun are different for each.
Have you taken your granddaughter out for a spin in your cars yet? Its never too early.
Jer
went to show saturday late--so hot--Joan almost got sick on me, but we made it. I worked on farm sat. morning, running big john deere spraying ditches, fences--got hot, just drained me by lunch. Parked everything.Held grand baby for five minutes yesterday at lunch, man. she,s nice. Will-alabama
As far as Grandsons and Cobras go mine likes to check out Papa's "fast car" everytime he comes over.
