    Joined the forum some time ago, but never got around to an introduction. I've been a Cobra fan since day one. Bought my first one in 1974: An original 427 SC that I bought for the princely sum of $14,000.00. Everyone thought I was crazy to buy an old sports car for that kind of money!
    Traded it toward a GT40 in 1985, and have missed it ever since it was loaded on the trailer. Finally managed to replace it with an original 427 full comp car a few months ago. Looking forward to participating on the forum, and to spring...

    Nice photos of your Cobra in the gallery. Do you have any photos of your GT40 that you can upload?

    Nice to see another Pennsylvanian onboard!! I believe at one time there were more Shelbys in Pa. than even California! I wonder what state ranks as the highest currently? anyway it sounds as you are a long time collector and it is with great pleasure that you are welcomed aboard. we look forward to some great input from you!:thumbup:

    Thanks guys. I don't have any "nice" photos of my GT40, but I posted a few that I did have available. Maybe next spring I can get some better ones.

    On the Pennsylvania thing, I used to have a 71 Torino Cobra(originally from Pennsylvania) and I remember a high number of Torino Cobras in the registry either originally from PA or were there now.
