Default Cobra 50th Anniversary Book. Trevor Legate. Only 289 being printed!

Whilst at the Goodwood Revival last year I heard about a book commisioned to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Cobra, and it`s now in print, titled "Cobra, the Story of an Icon"
Strictly limited to 289 copies, you might be able to reserve a particular number HERE on CollectorsCar World.
Written & with many photographs by Trevor Legate, this looks like a really special book,





This new large-format book takes a fresh look at the facts behind the myths that this iconic sports car created, accompanied by many previously
unpublished photos. The second half of the book covers the unique European Cobra gathering held in Germany , June 22-24 2012 with 30 original
Cobras and a Daytona Coupe and tells the history of every Cobra that attended, along with famous race drivers from that period like Jack Sears
and Jochen Mass.

289 numbered copies are available and there will be only 25 handmade, signed collectors editions (price 250 € + postage)! The unique Cobra
race at last years Goodwood Revival is a special round-up of this collectors item as well as a scrapbook chapter with never before published
photos of individual Cobras and a wonderful photo gallery of the best Cobra photographers on the planet.

· 206 pages
· 30 x 30 cm
