Dear all,
New to this forum I would like to introduce myself.
55 years old from Germany and looking back to a reasonable Cobra career.
I’m happy to have a girl friend at my side being also enthusiastic about Cobras and having fun to drive herself.
I started with a Southern Roadcraft, ran a Backdraft and a Dax and ended up with a SPF, Unique 427SC and an aluminium-bodied 289 Sports which is under restoration now.
In detail:
SPF: Dennis Olthoff build with an 427 Roush SR and TKO600, solid dark blue.
Unique: Factory build rolling chassis with GM 502 HO and Th700R, solid “Admiral” blue.
289 Sport (Street) under restoration: Mk III frame with aluminium body came to me after a long odyssey (last ten years stored with a restoration shop alone) last October as a “rolling chassis” without any interior or exterior,, no gearbox but with an original 427sideoiler (which will be never placed in this car).
I’m not a racer for sure, even I do some drag racing but more as a event for socialising. (Take the Unique due to automatic transmission :-)) ). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2IKMrsnnmc (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2IKMrsnnmc)
Last not least and say “Sorry”, because written in German. However pictures say more than thousand words, here my project: http://ak-289-sports-car.cms4people.de/index.html (http://ak-289-sports-car.cms4people.de/index.html)
So long
