I saw the car last night at the cruise-in in Birmingham and it is a beauty. A hearty 'Job well done' to all involved.

It looked particularly nice sitting next to his Black Boss Laguna Seca, too! I'm bummed that I had some issues on the way to the BBQ in Odenville and missed getting to hear it roar.

The sound was incredible for sure, the best part is just how well rounded the car is. The power comes on so smooth and the handling is just so on point and easy to control. I've always loved na motors over forced induction and the R just affirms it. Thanks for the oppurtunity Ben!!!

Saw the Cobra R today at the Rocket City Mustang Club Show. Really a great job restoring the car, it's wicked nice. In fact, this is the first Cobra R I have seen in real life and it's cool to have such a neat story behind it. The owner of the Cobra R also had a Boss Lugana Seca at the show as well. He let me sit in it and the recaros are awesome. Both sweet cars and I chatted with the owner a bit and he is a super cool guy.

Ahh... I was talking to the owner about his Boss LS when two judges came over to inspect his Cobra R. You were probably one of the two judges. Such a small world.

I was the only judge, there was a guy asking me about it though. I was wearing my RCMC shirt and had on a cobra hat.

Don't car shows typically have more than one judge?

okay, so lemme run the maths here

if:

R = meh
and
meh = awesome

then no part of Joe (consisting of letters J, O, and E) is awesome.

and so it is proclaimed.
