Hey all, my name is Chris. I recently acquired a MKIV Roadster… specifically this one (https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/showthread.php?27430-CDobbs-MK4-base-kit-build-by-wallace18). It looks a little different now, but is mostly the same as it was initially. This being my first Cobra, I am learning a lot and still getting the lay of the land so to speak. Everyone likes picture so I figured I would share a few.

Welcome!

There is a very active group in the St. Louis area that you need to seek out; the Gateway Cobra Club. I've built and/or painted a couple of cars for some of the members and known many of them for over a decade. They're all a good bunch of people :)

I saw that car auction on Bring A Trailer last month. Hope you enjoy it!

Jeff

These cars look SO GOOD in black! Congrats on your new purchase.

I'm from the Gateway Cobra Club in St. Louis and we'd really be interested in you joining us at our next meeting. It's the second Tuesday of each month, so next meeting is 9/12. We'll be meeting at Buffalo Wild Wings in Creve Coeur next month.

It's a good group of guys, very knowledgeable, and we are very active with our cars and social events.
A couple guys are running on the track at World Wide Technology Raceway this weekend, our annual picnic is next month, and a 5 day cruise event is planned for October in Arkansas/Ozarks. We're also planning on attending the London Cobra Show next year, it's been a few years since we went.

Congrats and let me know if there's anything you need or any help.

@MPTech - Appreciate you extending the olive branch. I will need to check the calendar but would love to meet up if I am free.
