Default Aussie Cobra's

Just Surfing through the web and came across this thread with a few of our Cobra's on it.

From what we know there are 7 genuine CSX, COB cars in Oz..

1& 2. Our two cars, COB 6033 and CSX 2101, Both fantastic machines and much loved. Plans are to respray 2101 back to black soon.

3.COB 6114, from the sports car world article in '68, lived in Queensland for a long time and is now in good hands in Melbourne.

4.Yellow, now blue car that was apparently sold to the UK recently, but i hear it is still in Melbourne. Without looking it up in the registry I am sure it is a COB car as well.

5.CSX 2105 lives in Queensland, blue with white stripes.

6. 427 S/C here in Queensland as well, blue with white stripes. It has not seen the light of day for a few years now.

7. Blue 427 CSX 3150 now lives in Brisbane with a well known historic racer.

The Briggs S/C has sadly left the country and the 289 Cobra in NSW is actually an AC Ace with a 289........

So 5 cars in Queensland, 2 in Victoria.

Maybe we should organise a visit to our collection one day for the Cobra/ GT40 owners in Queensland? Whoever wants to organise this feel free to contact me at dan@bowdensown.com.au

Cheers,
Dan Bowden
