Cobra wrecked on test drive
Amazing! That Cobra with 28 miles on it - I looked at that car in Cincinnati over 30 years ago! I went to look at a wrecked DeTomaso Mangusta at a body shop down there. That Cobra was sitting outside behind his shop. Once I saw the Cobra, I was no longer interested in the Mangusta - but, I could not talk him into selling the Cobra. The paint and the wire wheels were in much better condition thirty years ago.
Never was able to wrangle a deal on a real 289 Cobra, although I looked at a few over the years - always just out of reach (more recently - WAY out of reach). I ended up buying a Pantera, which I enjoyed for a dozen years, before selling it to build my ERA FIA car (I kept the BOSS 351 engine and Webers that I had put in the Pantera for my ERA).
Very cool! What's the VIN on the 28 mile Cobra?
