Cali_KR Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) Mayor McGuirk and I had the opportunity to preview a new museum that was put together by Drew Serb, long time Northern California based Cobra expert/restorer. The Museum is located at 777 Arnold in Martinez CA (East Bay) Deliciously catered, a video production, merchandise, lots of vintage memorabilia and 14 spectacular vehicles offered us a glimpse of a wonderful facility We anticipate a future event here, so stay tuned.

What's the story on the wadded up front end? Phill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cali_KR Posted November 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 What's the story on the wadded up front end? Phill I need to load another pic of an orange Cobra that was there. Reason why that car? Is was waded up not once, but twice, in a complete ball... Every vintage Cobra race car suffered damage back in the day, that nose section was just one of many.... That being said, I do not know the story of that specific piece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mvic1518 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 Jim, Nydia and I wanted to go for a drive today and I saw your going to the museum. This will be a nice drive and a bonus of seeing the museum. I'll try to be there by 11:00. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Patten Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 Nice place - fun movie - great cars. It was nice to have met you Mark. Surfergeek and I went up to check out the museum and then stopped @ In-n-Out Burger in San Ramon on the way back. Sorry JC, redneckgt, and Kathleen couldn't make the trek. We couldn't resist picking up some goodies in the gift shop while there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfergeek Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 Mark, Good to have met you. Love the 50th GT! Missed you today JC, we will have to do an official event there some time.
