What is it about these cars?

What is it about Gull Wing Mercedes, XK120, Ducenburg, P51, Beech Stagger wing, a nice wood hull Cris Craft?

STYLE!

This car is so sexy it cuts through all the BS of today’s world, it not friendly, it's not economical, it’s not environmentally friendly. It is a blend of what is old and what is new. It‘s was the beginning of a new decade, the 60’s, that time cannot kill and only hope to replicate. It was a time when doors were left unlocked, windows left open and fence friendly neighbors. A time when you knew the local cops and if caught would take you home to Dad for the proper punishment. A time when people did not blow themselves up to kill other people for the sake of their religion. A time of Drive in movies where the car was your seat to the world and more often than not your hotel room of first experiences.

The Cobra is a sleek time machine that once in you are in for ride of a lifetime. Noticed, scorned, booed, cheered, thumbs up ride of a lifetime. It is a car for all seasons. ( unless you live in the north country)
