perhaps that is the car featured on a TV show that had a chair welded to the front fender where a native sat witha lasso to catch the fast animals...hence the need for a 427 vs. a 289?

Doubt I'd find anything unmolested in that place.... ;-)

Unmolested... ;-)

However, I do have a few friends from Zim and they speak very highly about their country - except about Mugabe...

Give me a few weeks and I report! I need to prepare a bit more before I go.
BTW, it's a universe away from Nigeria, as is South-Africa.

My car wash buddy also spoke about a blue 289 at the local track until 1999 (in Zim).
But John A never heard about that car either. 1999 could have been a replica, but a 289??

Domink - you may want to contact "Dubbs" on pg. 16 of the thread dealing with "Ever notice other Cobra owners snubbin ya?" He was a member of the South African Cobra Club for 19 years and may have some information.

Okay, let me do that. I may even met him before when I was in Joburg.
Is Chris L W still around? I have not heard from him since left all his documents with Ralf G in Germany.

It is widely believed that Chris LW has either met his end, or has disappeared on purpose. Either way, no one has heard anything from or about him in years.
