Is this the article that pictured the 3 Cobras, one without a "Bonnet" because of the 2 x 4's on a hi riser, all driving next to each other on a track? Who was driving the cars? Tony? Sorry MarkIV typing at the same time.

Car & Driver, Road & Track and one other Rag (?) all printed compilations of past articles on Cobras and had them for sale in a nice glossy paperback book about 3/8" thick. They have also been renamed for the most part and re-marketed through the years. Some of the pictures are good refrence for authenticity. My favorite is the September 1963 Motor Trend for an early 289 with the subsequent road test at Riverside.
