Well this is interesting. Im gonna venture and assume this is a one of a kind. Nice job to Jim and Charles for getting our class to get this MK4 together in 24 hours. The car did awesome with snow tires on it!

There are several of us here that can tell you from experience, you do not need snow tires to drive your Cobra in the snow :D .

I know this is an old post, but any chance you have any more information, or video for that matter, of this? I went to the build school as well, but there was no snow there in the fall. :)

Jeff,
Since I'm from the Metro New Orleans Area I have one question for you:
.How can you stay a little too long at a bar?

Ask Mrs GoDad, I bet she'll have an opinion.

As a young man I lived in Germany at a bar -- not figuratively but literally. My two-bedroom apartment was built in the same building as the bar and the bar owner's three-bedroom apartment. I was over in the bar everyday after work hanging out with the owner (my landlord). My first wife, a Polish girl, thought I spent too much time at the bar after work. I thought she should have been grateful I didn't drive home after all that great German beer I consumed. And I was always home in time for dinner.
