The results from the poll show that most of you felt there were too many forums. The most popular choice, by far, was to consolidate them into chassis type, so that's what I've done.

Please let me know if you find any problems or I missed anything.

Thanks to Eric, for giving me a little kick and getting me started on the conversion.

Henry,

Well, you have Wayne and I right here. Many of our 93 members are original owners (close to 200 or so). And you have Mr. Palmer out in the Great Midwest who is the 1st and 3rd owner of his 93 Cobra. But the numbers are dwindling. I've even had a passing notion of selling my CObra and my Cruiser Convertible and buying a Lotus Elise. Pretty much got that one out of my system though.

Old number 53 has been in my grubby hands since day one, and I have no plans to part with it anytime soon. With 13 years since job one, the number is probably pretty small by now.

Why is that pathetic? I am the same way.... 3/18/94 drove her home in 14 inches of NY lake effect snow too....

There were only a handful of 93 original owners that I could think of. Seems there are a lot of newer owners and cars changing hands. Always a few on good ole fleabay..... I've been curious about this for a long time.

Hey, Bob, don't let yours go. I've been toying with the idea that mine needs a new home, but not sure I'm ready to part with 2205. We've had a lot of fun over the years. Guess if I can get my steering and suspension back up to snuff, I'll drive a few miles this year.....

Thanks guys!

Hello all,

Another original owner checking in. I would think there are still more out there. I am also a second owner too.

Dont know if I count as the original owner or not. I suppose I'm technically the 2nd owner, but I purchased the car from my father.

I am the original owner of my 1993 GT, and bought my 1996 cobra from a friend who only drove it on weekends and so barely put 30K miles on it.
I would never part with my 93, but I am considering selling the 96 cobra.

93 GT 90K miles
Black, Gray leather

96 SVT Cobra 130,000k miles

Hey Bob.....glad to see you decided to keep the 93. Somehow I just can't imagine you without that car. See you got the ASC McClaren.

Question Bob...whats your guess on how many '93s are still out there?
