Talk about the "Cobra in the barn" story. I was attending a car show recently when a guy swore to me that a friend of his son was GIVEN a 289 Cobra with the Weber set up as a trade for painting his station wagon. The story goes like this: A kid inherited the Cobra from his Grandfather. It was stored in a barn with a tarp covering it. It wouldn't run, so the kid focused on his station wagon, which was in need of paint. I guess the original Cobras were purchased mostly by farmers. Give me a break!
