Cobras at Gale's new garage

Gale, his wife Jeannie and Bob built the new garage in about two weeks; I think overall it's about 40 x 50. Serious envy...

So we showed up to raise the tone (Gale's a Ch*vy guy) with three Cobras. To our surprise there was one already there! Here they are: On the right is Mike's E-M, then Wellington's ERA, then Bob's Unique and my E-M.

Oh, in the background is the new Garage Mahal...

Now it's party time!

I am completely jealous! I would LOVE to see the green slabside in person. That is my favorite - a street 289.
