I have now seen 3021 and 3050 in person and there are two distinct impressions. First, these cars were well before their time. Bash Ole Shel all you want, the idea of a big-assed engine + a little dinky car = a Cobra was all his. Secondly, the hand craftsmanship was spectacular for the age. This 3050 car has 10k miles on it and is has aged gracefully....you can tell it was built with painstaking passion and attention to detail. Every electrical connection, every bolt, every seam...100% hand-crafted.
