A gorgeous day in the Ozarks so I decided to take some pics of the local flora and fauna so to speak.

Wifee says I am patriotic in my color choices.

Excellent. A Daytona coupe would complete the quartet.

Very nice, I've got the same trio, except Shelby coupe vs convertible. My Cobra is by Superformance, who makes yours, or if it is original, I am envious.

Looks like Jack has a nice place we can trash. ROAD TRIP!

Frank, can always count on you for a great idea. When we head down to Jack’s place for the Halloween party (Trash Fest 2011) we can add some more beautiful RED to his collection. Not even any black marks on his drive YET! Needs the more used look.

GT35065. The Cobra is a CSX4000. It was made for In N Out Burger in CA as Grand Prize in a 1997 contest. It has some good history: Tested for a Feb '98 Road and Track First Drive article, "Miss December" in 1999 Lincoln Electric Motorsport calendar, used extensively in Shelby brochures for CSX4000, plus, plus, plus. I have had the car since June '98 and have had a lot of good times in it.

Frank and Blake:
You guys are hilarious. Red is a good color and one can never get too much of it. Black marks on the driveway can always be powerwashed away. Trash pickup is once a week, but they do have a limit that you two might exceed.

Interesting to see the size comparison between the Ford GT and the Cobra. The GT looks small(ish) next to the Cobra, but I always think of the cobra as a smaller car.

This is SOOOO true. The Cobra looks like it's biggie sized compared to the GT. I always picture the Cobra as a tiny little car too. It is........ Must be lens perspective.

I had the In-N-Out t-shirt and spilled some mustard (really) on it so now it's relegated to a work-shirt. I need to get a new one next time we go to Vegas. I sold my CSX to make room for the GT. I do regret it but my wife won't ride in it and we only have a 2-car garage (to which she claims half ownership :) ) Hopefully the money will be wired in today.

Triheart. I think the pics are deceiving due to being 2D. The Cobra is definitely shorter, narrower but is a little taller than the GT. BTW the Cobra weighs a LOT less than the GT. It comes in at 2200 lbs, so with a 550 HP motor it really goes. The GT is quicker as it hooks up better. Road and Track wrote my car did 0-60 in 4.0 sec with street tires. GT handles much better and brakes are infinitely better.
