I sold the cobra II drag car.

It was a bittersweet moment watching it going down the driveway on a trailer. I've owned that car for a long time, longer than any car I've ever owned but I knew I would never finish it. I've had it for sale for close to three years.

I used to race it when it was a street legal car and had a blast, but I thought I wanted a full-on race car so I back-halved it, installed a 4 link rear suspension, tubbed it, etc. I never finished it. I went through a divorce about 10 years ago and it was one of two cars I kept but I just moved it from garage to garage until I bought the place I have now.

The new owner has great plans for it and promised to send pictures when he gets it back on a track. I wish him well and hope to see it racing again sometime. If you watch any drag racing from the track at Bowling Green Ky. look for a black and gold II.

I hate to see cars go too but it sounds like it has a good home. I look forward to see it at Beach Bend (and maybe race against it someday!) I would have liked to buy it myself... I think the II's are cool especially tubbed!

Craig if you run into it at the track let me know...and try to get some pics! He said he's really busy right now so it will be a couple of months before he has it ready to race.
