It does take me back. The first Cobra I ever saw was a little 1963 or 64 (don't remember). I was looking to trade my TR3 on a larger faster sports car. My new bride didn't like the snake on the steering wheel so we passed on the little white Cobra with red leather and wire wheels. We bought the triple black 1964 Jaguar with chrome wires. This was 1965 and the Jaguar was purchased in England by a US Army Major. It was European Speced. It had 3 carbs and a 3:00 rear. Fasted top speed I ever went 160 mph If speedo is to believed. Shift into 4 gear at 125. I had my chance at a Cobra and blew it.
