Well, this afternoon I delivered the cobra to its new owner and collected my new toy.




Only these two shots for now, as I plan on spending tomorrow giving it a full wash and care treatment!
Will post more about it later on when I get time away from 2 small children

Woah Lookin' good!

My brother's brother in law has a '68 mustang, 3 speed manual apparently, is that rare?

He's stateside, so slightly more common over there I guess!

Looks frickin' sweet dude

I'd love an old muscle car especially a 67 Camaro SS

its a 65, 3.2 straight6
pretty much all of it is original. a few little niggles with the body, bu nothing that cant be sorted.
need to look all over the car, to check all the authentic bits.

oooooooofff !!

Shotgun!

Infact just a sound clip of that being given some serious beans would make me happy. Anything planned to be done to it mechanically or are you going to keep it as per original spec?

edit: Damn I didn't realise you were getting rid of the cobra, one of my all time favs. Alas it'll be a few years before I could afford one of those

Heh, needs a nice polish, which I shall be doing today weather permitting.

Then I am going to find the VIN number and chassis plates, decode them, and see whats what.

The Big engine will be a winter job, if thats the way this car goes. (other problem with the Big engine, is one of my friends wants it for his Daytona Cobra. and it would suit his car better.)

Its slow and does not quite have the V8 sound, but its nice to drive at the moment, so I am just gonna enjoy it for a few months.
