Tony,

That car you photographed at the SFO auto show looks like the second factory DS. That car was destroyed many years ago by vandals (rolled down a hill in New Mexico). Last I heard the owner was looking for a way to restore it. He may have succeeded, and this may be it. Judging from the Daytona Coupe in the background, the color may be darker in your photo than what the car really looks like. The original was painted a heavily metalflaked light blue. Mine isn't metalflaked.

Later this year I hope to put up a website on the Dragonsnake. I've domained both heylittlecobra.com (an old Ripchords tune about a Cobra drag racing a Corvette) and dragonsnake.info. Over the years I've accumulated a ton of material to fill that site with.

Just yesterday, I won an old drag race LP with the sounds of a 63 Cobra racing at Pomona on eBay. Should make for some nice background music.

Hal
