I hope I don't offend any die hard Cobra or Ford guys on here by posting a photo of my 1964 corvette that I recently sold, but if your like me, you like cars of all makes if they are done right. Some of you mentioned driving a Cobra might not give the adrenaline rush like a 7 second race car, but I think driving a Cobra would give a constant flow of adrenaline, much better than just getting a 7 second squirt of it. I would have to say however that things can get pretty exciting when the sun goes down and dew starts to settle on the track. It'll make your butt pucker in a hurry
I did start off with a Ford, a 64 Ford Falcon with a top loader and a 429.
I was 15 years old and it was my first engine build. As a matter of fact Brent and I put my 429 in one of his racecars after his big motor finally let loose so he could continue leading the points. He even let me race his car in a few races. If anyone happens to get bored I did post a picture in the gallery section.
Thanks,
Eddie
