I am surprised that you didn't hear us, Gene! Our routes took us both north and south out of the Sagamore, so we definitely past your place at least once.

Okay, my previous couple of posts notwithstanding, one does not always have to drive a Cobra… there are other cool Fords in which you can have lots of fun! I enjoy organizing a not-for-profit Shelby G.T. 350 driving tour each fall. The Tour takes place in a different location each year. In...

To be honest, the 427's with side pipes, as well as the comp. 289's, were slightly obnoxious in the tunnel! I am not much of a Chevy guy, nonetheless, I was impressed that somebody was actually driving a '58 Impala that is as nice as that one, so I snapped a photo of it. I am a firm believer...

I couldn't help but purchase some fig newtons during one of our fuel stops... as a kind of homage to the bear that terrorized my buddies and me in Alaska!

I don’t mean to dwell on Cobras on a Forum that is devoted to Ford’s superb GTs, however, after having been asked to post a thread about the 2018 Last Frontier Alaska Cobra Tour, I am guessing that there might be a few Forum members who will find this interesting…. For the past 29 years – yes...

I spoke with Jim Owens at Laguna. Unless I misunderstood what he was saying, the car will be available with cf roundels or without roundels. Jim said that they would offer white roundels for the heritage cars ordered without cf roundels; in the event that the owner wanted to apply white roundels.

New Heritage, I guess. At Laguna right now

Yes, Ed, Flatrod's place is super-cool! It is nirvana for any Ford guy or gal! As you know, it is in a secret, nondescript location. Nonetheless, Fort Knox has nothing on Flatrod in terms of security! Lee

Yeah... just a "little!" Lol! All of us on the Tour would not have enjoyed ourselves nearly as much as we did without your gracious involvement and unwavering support! Heck, my Cobra would have covered zero miles in Alaska were it not for your assistance!

Okay, now that you are unmasked and I know who you are, Flatrod...! Everybody on the Forum should know that Flatrod, whom I had never met nor spoken with before arriving in Anchorage last month, saved my ass just prior to the start of the Last Frontier Alaska Cobra Tour! Not to go into another...

Sure. I am only about halfway through my trip, though. Once I return home, I will sort through the photos and post any half decent ones on Dropbox.

Is that you, Dennis?! You don't have to answer that. The hard hats.... Well, we took the ferry across from Valdez to Whittier. Once in Whittier, there are two ways out: the ferry or the one-lane tunnel that is shared among cars/trucks/motorcycles and trains. We figured that we would scoot...

My Dad worked for Ford from the time that I was born... there was never a chance that I'd have anything but Ford Blue in my veins! I even named my teddy bear Henry Ford!

Life is good in a Cobra!!! Water comes in everywhere; even with the top up! The 2017 Cobra 1000... 26 original Cobras, zero convertible tops!

Thanks! I am certainly no photographer! Those are all android photos.

I am SO jealous of your roads! What fun you must have in your GT! Well, at least four or five months out of the year, anyway!

Safety trailer? Are you kidding me??!! You simply decide what spares you might need and divide them up among the Cobras! The one photo shows Dave Wagner with his head in the boot of Tom Cotter's Cobra while he changes out an electric fuel pump that failed. Luckily, Tom was carrying a spare...

I cannot imagine having a Cobra in the garage and not driving it! One of the photos shows CSX2393's odometer rolling over to 136,002 miles. I meant to take the photo at precisely 136,000, but, when you are driving in such a stunningly beautiful place, you tend to get distracted frequently!

Fred and Nancy are wonderful people... they put Dave and I up for a few days. As you can see, we took a nice run out into the Canadian Rockies in the Cobras with Fred and Nancy.

I was becoming uneasy about the hijack, Ed. Some folks had asked for photos of the AK Cobra tour, so I uploaded a bunch to the "Other Ford Products" section of the Forum. LC
