Thanks Russ for giving us the chance to have our own little local cobra site/forum, so hopefully we can stay informed as to any meetings that any one of us is planning to attend, any local cobras Kit or "Real" are welcome to join us, as are people just interested in the marque itself, i will try to post up any meets im planning to attend, starting with this fridays Leagate Hot rod meet in Preston which i will be attending, any one else?
There are probably more legends surrounding Carroll Shelby, than just about anybody else involved in the automotive industry, you have give him credit for creating some of the most beautifull, legendary, and awe inspiring cars ever
Had a fantastic weekend at Stoneleigh Kit car Show, great to see many freinds old and new, the northern cobra convoy picked up more and more cobra club cars on the way down, once northern convoy arrived at the Green Man in Kenilworth, we had a quick stretch of the legs and a photoshoot, then it was off the final few miles, made much easier to keep together this year, thanks to some very kind volunteers stopping the traffic so we could all get out together, big thanks to them!, of course not everyone was thrilled to see us, as we respectfully snaked through the village at about 10.30 am, apparently there was a complaint about the noise of our cars from one Stoneleigh resident, to one of our volunteer photographers who was videoing the convoys passage, as the saying goes you cant please everybody!. Anyway 100s of cobras and of course many other kit cars were at the show, there was also a great display of american cars, hot rods and classic cars ect this year, ill try to sort pics and vid out asap.
Next planned Cobra outing is the Thirsty Car Meet on the 9th of May at 6.30pm on, at the Fylde Rugby Club in Lytham St annes, anyone else going?
Had a fantastic weekend at Stoneleigh!, with a great bunch of people once again, the sun shone all day long (i have the burns to prove it) of course now im starting to shed my skin like a rattlesnake! lol, but nevermind eh!, anyway just a couple of pics from the weekend on: https://www.facebook.com/colin.ellison.54#!/colin.ellison.54, dont want to spoil it for the cobra convoy video, that hopefully i will get done soon, Best regards to all
went to the american weekend meet at leyland today, ended up a great day despite iffy forcast, next appearance will be at woodvale on saturday hopefully
Thanks Russ, pics sent, decided against Woodvale Sat. as it was raining all morning and the weather forcast was not great, and Sunday looks even worse, if we get a decent break in the weather, i hope to go to the Supercar meet or/and Fort San antone meet, ill bring my waders JIC! LOL

That cob looks superb, wondering though just how restrictive the old 'turkey pan' would be, but they do look good!
