I dont know if any of you guys subscribe to Drive but the guys on there are awesome.
Anyway to quote the description.
"This vid is a 1966 Shelby Cobra replica that was built by a Father and his two sons more than 10 years ago. It's faded fiberglass shell is chipped and spider-webbed. The stainless trim is pitted and tarnished and the wheels are coated in a thick layer of brake dust. The carpet is also coming up and every now and then it blows flames from its side-pipes due to it running a little rich. Some may think these are problems. Me personally - I think it's one of the coolest cars I've ever driven. This episode of "Big Muscle" is about the drive, those project cars that we work on, and the exhilaration we get when we wring them out for the first time on the open road"
It is summed up at the end with this sentence and I think this rings true for all us car guys and girls.
"There are certain days in a car guys life that they will always remember, if you have that dream car, project car get in it, start it, drive it, wrench on it, dont save it for the next guy and don't put it off for that next week or that next month because when you think you'll finish it odds are you won't. Burn outs, donuts, road trips do what ever you want with that car and do it now"

I really enjoyed this one, and this year I have been out with my dad as much as possible with our two cars enjoying the cars and strengthening our relationship and its a really great feeling. Makes me look forward to Silverstone even more
Enjoy!
