I suppose I could sell one of my vehicles but without a top the Cobra gets poor marks for winter driving. I keep hoping to win the lottery or something. Actually I don't think his wife would sell it if I offered her twice what its worth. Maybe because she knows I was best friends with her husband but that was the best work he did in a long line of really good work.

PhotosGuy Moderator More info | Jan 23, 2016 11:52 | #243 OK. Maybe remind her that a car like that needs to be driven once in a while to keep the seals lubricated? FrankC - 20D, RAW, Manual everything...

Jeff_56 Senior Member More info Post edited over 3 years ago by Jeff_56. | Jan 24, 2016 16:58 | #246 Permanent banThis was a work in progress when I took this shot. It's being built on a Chevy truck frame. Notice the nitrous oxide kit.  My friend built this one also. He built a lot of stuff in his life. He built an engine for an "enterprising" person looking to be able to pull a General Lee type stunt only instead of getting ahead by jumping a bridge he wanted to stay ahead by dumping over a bridge if you get my drift. The guy got clocked doing 228 mph out in Texas or Arizona. It still didn't keep him from being caught but still. 228 MPH! In a Chevy sedan that looked like a grocery hauler. That one had nitrous too. That stuff can be plumb stupid and counting on it to get away even in Texas where the road goes on for miles in a straight line. The thing is the cops can see you from miles behind too. I wasn't rotting for the bad guy at all. But the guy was an old friend of my friend so he built him what he wanted. It's 1000 wonders he didn't kill his self pulling tricks like that.
