Not Ranked
Hey guys,
I was at a car show yesterday and met a car painter from Excalibur that said he had painted all but 9 of the Cobras including mine. He gave me some interesting facts. He says that there were a total of 151 of the Cobras built, including one that was extended by one foot to accommodate the height of the ambassador to Zimbabwey.
He talked for about an hour, and had some great stories. Can't go into them all here, but basically, working at Excalibur was a non ending party with Jens leading the way. He was quite a playboy and used the cars, the company and the promotional budget to advance his agenda. (we can only wish we had that deal when we were young)
I told him about this thread, hopefully he'll be signing in sometime with some tidbits for us.
