Swallows return to Capistrano every year, and salmon swim upstream to their spawning grounds. Something similar happens at Unique Motorcars in early May. A few dozen Cobras showed up for a three-day celebration for the company’s customers.

It started on a Thursday night, where they met at Top of the River for dinner, with nearly 100 friendly folks sharing a meal at the restaurant. The Open House started officially on Friday morning with 40 cobras and one Daytona Coupe (custom-built using the firm’s roadster chassis). The Weavers of Unique served everyone lunch and the factory tour continued until late afternoon.        

After a Friday night dinner at The Fishmarket in Gadsden, just down from the host hotel, everyone met at Noccalula Falls on Saturday morning for a cruise to Guntersville State Park, about a 1.5 hour drive. They enjoyed lunch at the Gridiron in Boaz then returned to the shop. The event finished up Saturday night with margaritas and Mexican food at El Tapatios. So eating, drinking and driving Cobras—is that a good time or what?
