Jamo, once upon a time one of the kit car mags indicated somebody was making a repop of the Flip Top. It was in one of those ubiquitous "Manufacturer's Guides" they run about every other issue. I even recall they had a thumbnail-sized picture of what was clearly a fiberglass body, right out of the mold. It was hard to see due to the size, but it was obviously longer in the nose than a typical Cobra replica, and had cutouts for the cooling slats found in the "hood" area of the Flip Top's body. Needless to say, I immediately wet my pants and started counting my pennies. That was probably fifteen or twenty years ago. My pants have dried, I still don't have enough pennies, but it's irrelevant because I never heard another word about that FT replica. One part of me wishes somebody would replicate it, another hopes no one does because it is such a unique and legendary part of the Cobra story...
Big Bob, I continue to be in awe of your ability to befriend all of the Cobra loremasters. Next I know you'll be telling us about how you got invited to a sleepover at Bobby Bondurant's house.
Nice guys do finish first.
Sorry about your hair but Cal and I have warned you before to duck around helipads and airports.
Bob
