Brown nice!


I started up the cobra and moved it back more in the garage to make room for the snowblower and generator.

Thursday morning, got in #1960 at 4:30am and drove 150+ miles from my house to Willow Springs. Put it on the course at 9:00 and by end of day added 120 miles of track time. Car performed well for its first time.

Had a nice relaxing drive home.

I did walk by #4633 a few times though.

Took her on a 250+ mile round trip to a C&C event without a hiccup! Had a blast and broke some necks driving back and forth, saw some sick rides at the show (TT Lambo, FGT, 3 2015 Mustang GT's, numerous old school muscle cars), caught up with an old friend while there, and found a kickin' BBQ place for lunch! Not a bad way to spend a Sunday morning/afternoon. :biggrin:

This was really the first show I've entered my car in over a year. It drew quite a bit of interest from the die-hard Mustang guys.

As I was leaving a guy asked me if it was mine, I said yes and then he told me this cool story about how he bought a car just like mine (red/blk) off the showroom floor of Galpin Ford while stationed with the Army in SoCal back in the day...only to have the car stolen two weeks after buying it. His insurance replaced the red/blk with a blk/gry leather '93 Cobra! That conversation with him and knowing how much he enjoyed seeing my car and the memories it brought back for him made my day! Dude had a perma-grin on his face the whole time he was looking over my car!

Started it and let it run for 5 mins or so, knocked the cobwebs off the back bumper to the concrete. She starts up every time best car I have ever owned hands down. I use to own a 96 Mystic back in the day when it was fairly new and if I didn't start it for a few weeks it would die. Carried it all over to get it looked at and no one can figure out what was draining it. This car has sat for a month and cranks right up first time.

Agreed. My '03 Terminator would kill the battery if not started after a week or so. My '93 has gone four weeks and not a hint of a slow start or dead battery.
