British Car Show

Yes, if the weather is OK, I will be there as an exhibitor. Coming from Toronto's West End. Look out for an unpainted MK3.1. There will probably be other (completed) FFR's there - as there has been in previous years.

Well I am glad I went to the show. Good to see your car Tim. Always a treat to see how everybody personalizes these things.
I had no idea the show was that big. Must have been a 1000 cars there.
Anybody know how many of those Cobras were original? I did see a poster by one saying it was in the registry.

Do you have any pics of the original Cobra? All the ones in your photos are replicas.

Good Evening Sundude,

You were asking about the Cobras at the show, there were 8 or 9 cars and one original Bristol as well.
Angelo had his aluminum CSX 4025 there and Kim was there with his polished aluminum car as well. Legendary was not there with the original Cobras unlike last year.

Thanks Tom..always been a big fan of those original AC's. Plain looking as can be, but still a lot of grace.

Thanks buddy. I was hoping Angelo was going to make it to SAAC-37, but alas he wasn't able. But Kim's car was certainly worth seeing, and the car's story is certainly worth hearing.

I see your car in some of those pics, too. Wish I coulda been there.
