Rob Bernardino still here.
As you know been hopping around the country with my MK1A since I bought it off my dad in 2004. First it was Atlanta, GA. Then New Haven, CA. Now Carmel, CA. 
Moved out here last year and had Paul Reisentz get the car sorted and back on the road.
Been on a few road rally's with my son, Trevor, now 4 years old.
Two weeks ago, treated me and the car to a new paint job. You can see the paint and some of the rallye pics on the link below.

As for some reasons why the list may wax and wane is also alternatives. I am active in a Tiger group on Facebook. It is a nice group because it is easier to attach pictures, comment, and give feedback. I have gotten lots of help with this group but the technology of the facebook hosted group is appealing. Also active in the CAT forum. And check the TE/AE forum. Only so many hours in the day.

As for my prepping the Tiger for the track, the link below gives me pause. Upside, the driver is completely unscathed and the engine of the cobra is for sale.

I have a 260 with a correct block (C3OE-6015B) but the pad has been milled so no build date code. The casting date is 3D18. Way back we discussed that this might be a bit early for the 7 Nov 63 build date, but just wondering if you have developed anymore info on that first batch of 260s.
