The Spotting Of The Century! (1955 Ford Cobra)
Well Hello There Horsepower Lovers!!
I Literally Turned Around!
Legitly I'm not even screwing around here! I saw this guy going down to the shopping sentrum and I decided to pull in after him! We didn't park close to each other but what the heck! I was hoping on catching a word with the guy but he was on a mission into the shop!
It's not everyday where you see something like this cruising around town and especially not so in our town!
I've got to add that the blue is absolutely perfect! Although with that said the dark olive green that Jaguar likes to slap on, that would have been something for the eye right!
Drop it Lower!
Oh yeah! Now we're talking! Talking the good good gang gang!
Okay I get it, it's not a damned Mercedes Benz or the new BMW! Yeah I get that and for most people this might just look like a piece of shit! BUT it really isn't! It's a glorified piece of metal and it's glorifiedness is justified!
A little side note which I think is well worth the mention! My grandfather has done some of the work on this little beautifull beast! YEAH can you believe it! I was bamfaffled! It was many years ago but bolting down a nut on this must give you some satisfaction!
Imagine The Feels?
Yeah! The feels! Okay so I don't know much about this specific vehicle... in terms of speed and all that, I highly doubt that anyone would win with this against any modern vehicle today!
However imagine how one must feel with that V8 roaring on the road as your cruising down the fast lane! Forget the roaring! Imagine how the heads will turn! I'd be driving around with a smile waving to everyone around me!
Heck I would own this thing!
The Ford Cobra!
I'm not too sure exactly but I think this might be a 55 model! YEAHP!
If so can you believe that this car is almost a 100 years old! Yeah okay it still has close to a quarter to go but heck! This is wild!
For how old it is it's looking pretty damn pretty! Body wise and interior wise, although the interior is a little boring! BUT HEY it was the 55's people didn't care about stupid shit back then! (However I think it was just plainly redone!
That rear end!
Check it out! Oh it's low you better believe that! It's lower than most of the cars on the road today! If not all of them! And it's low as in seat low as well! Might be feeling like you're driving a Ferrari or a Lamborghini (URGH Lambo's yuck!)
I told you... interior is slightly boring but then again who gives a damn right? Look at the overall picture! Stunning!
Yeahp I Would!
Would what? Trade my car in? YEAHHHH if it was worth (My car xD) This thing is probably 20 of my cars!
The stance though oh! It wouldn't be the same without those thick wheels! Heck you wont be sliding out with those! They'll just grip and bite down and you'll be a few ahead!!!
Gorgeous stuff and something that I sure as hell wish and hope to see again! Mayhaps I can have a word with the owner or something!
Oh But I Had To!
Angled almost from every side! I mean why not! I should have gotten more! From weird angles as well!
Damn I wish I could spot and share more of these classics with everyone! Not just classics but supercars and racing cars the lot! The problem is that you rarely see these and other cruising around town! It maybe happens once or twice in six months and then you've got to be lucky going the same direction as it or something!
Anyways! Cheers and peace out everybody!
