Back in 66 my friend traded in his 63 split window Vett and about $3000 for a 66 289 original roadster. This cobra made about 315 HP, but it went like hell!We had some fun in that car racing the hot rods of the day. This cobra sat in my garage during the winters for serval years until my friend got married. Then one day he told me he sold the cobra without ever telling me he was going to sell it! He sold it for $5800 as he need the money to start building a new home. Needless to say I was disappointed, but I never say a word to him. Then last summer I was sitting in the dentist office waiting for the dentist and I pick up the local news paper and turned to the auto section. I would always look at the customer or hotrod section. And there it was 1965 Cobra replica for sale and it was just a few miles up the road. Living in the suburbs of Chicago all the cobra for sale seen to be accross the country, but this one was right here!! I wanted a cobra for the last 40 years, so later that day my wife and went to see the cobra. It was love at first sight. After some discussion of price we quickly agreed and now it mine. Yes you do get bitten bad after you really have one. I love it!! Oh, as for my age I' 63 soon to turn 64 but I figure I can enjoy this to at least 80. Go get one and enjoy it.
