Exclamation Retired Bracket Racer SB For Sale?

Hi to all!

Been a long time since I have been on the site, and it's nice to come back.

But I have an issue that has me somewhat confliced. Family issues require that I put both of my cars up for sale.

One is my locally very well known "Cobra65", a car origionally built in the late '80's strictly for the purpose of bracket racing, where it had a pretty long run. It was retired in 1994, and refreshed in preparation for the '96 season, but was again retired. Since then we have finished it out as a street/show car, and used it primarily for fundraising for children's causes. It still possesses a really terrific, high dollar and very well detailed 383 build up, and consistently ran sub 12's (emphasise consistent).

See http://www.cobra65.org/hardcore99.htm

Or see our entire site at www.cobra65.org.

The other car is a relatively rare '91 Corvette ZR1, with the fabulous Lotus LT5 OHC engine, world record holder. Mine is one of the few remaining that has not been raced or modified, and is still in virgin condition.

seewww.greatvettes.org/vettetree01.htm, or the whole site at www.greatvettes.org.

I can't see selling the Cobra for less than about $30k. It can still beat the snot out of all the others in Baton Rouge, both big block and small block, because it was really built to do what it does well.

The ZR1 has a market value of about 35k (sold new for over 70k, the ZR1 OPTION being $32,600 alone!).

Is anyone here interested in the Cobra (or the ZR1)? Or if you know someone, I would appreciate comments and any interest.

Regards,
