there was only one there like that, and it would be what you call a JCF 289 slabside Cobra, and a far cry from anything Shell Valley has ever made. That particular car is regularly confused (at many events) for an original with a bit more petina than the more commonly seen cookie-cutter Cobras
As for the show, from what I could tell by just stopping in and looking over the fence seeing a few friends on the lakeside, it seemed to be a bit leaner and less dense packed with cars and spectators as compared to prior showing. We all sort of guessed the economy might hold things back a bit.
I think it was stupid to charge spectators $45/person in a recovering economy. If they were smart, they would have made it $20 for spectators and ended up with 3x the attendance.
