That brings back a memory Bob! I yo thought about a trailer hitch on my '67 GT500 for my Cobra back in 1968. Decided against it as trailer was little more expensive than I thought. Shortly after sold both !

There was a Williams Ford in Daly City next to the theater...on Mission Street... in 1964. I bought my used 63 1/2 Falcon Sprint there and later had then upgrade cam,heads,and intake from the Shelby Parts Catalog. Later traded that for my fist Cobra!

S&C Ford is no longer in SF. Believe that property on market street is now apartments. Think they move to South Sf or Daley City.

Congratulations Vern!

Earl, notice the fuel log for the Webers?

Earl,if you get a chance could you send me those engine pictures we talked about!

About 15-20 years back was trying to get the Shelby vin # for my first cobra as I was unable to find it in the registry. I did have the black CA plate # from 1966. Reached out to CA DMV and was told to send a check for $50 and they would get it from their archives. Sent the check, and a week later....after the check had cleared... was notified that it was too old for their archives! Gotta love the "golden state"!

I also tried to get on a waiting list for the Cobra Experience dinner but was told the waiting list was also full. They have 350 dinner reservations. I too would like to purchase a ticket if someone has one for sale.

With SAAC 50 upcoming, wonder how many "old timers" who owned Shelbys in the '60s are still around still reminiscing!?

Since dinner for Saturday night is sold out, will the room be open after for those wishing to watch the evening program?

Earl, actually bought both my Cobra's from private parties in '66 & '67 but did buy the GT500 from S&C in '67. Joined Nor-Cal around 1990. The track times were great but my best memories were times with members!

Earl, forgot about Krueger! There was a time when Nor-Cal posted a lot on the forum, but seems they are now far and few between!

Was reading a current tribute for the Nor-Cal club on Snakebites. They mentioned those who founded the club. For some reason I thought that Don Day and Dick Smith were the original founding members also. Memory is slipping and could be wrong.

Dave, that would be great! Just a couple. I did have some left over but somehow they got misplaced along with other memorabilia including the certificates of thank you. Have had trouble trying to PM on site but you can get my info in members only. Thank you!

A box? Guessing someone had more made. I started these originally for the help with the lawsuit defense fund.Had 1000 made by a shop in Carson City. At the time thought it was a creative way to raise funds.
