My visit to Legendary Motorcar: Cobras and GT40s (Mar 2014)
I just arrived home from a quick business trip to the Toronto area, and had time to pop in at Legendary Motorcar yesterday after my meetings.
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7305/1...dd22bc8a_o.jpg As always the showroom was packed with drool-worthy cars including four original Cobras and two continuation-series Cobras. I had already seen two of them on my previous visits, but the other four were new sightings to me. CSX2570 was the 1965 New York International Auto Show display car. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7401/1...20ff7a6e_o.jpg http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3053/1...f46108cb_o.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7373/1...656c9227_o.jpg http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3127/1...e48c1b55_o.jpg CSX3189 was a 427 street roadster which has been converted to include some S/C features. http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2722/1...c9bbcc1e_o.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7297/1...c8bb2ee4_o.jpg The car had an unusual cover over the batteries with a battery cut-off switch on top. I've never seen this kind of setup before. http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3112/1...c65d99cc_o.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7435/1...3957c8cf_o.jpg CSX3235 has been at LMC for a long time now. It's thought to be the "splash car" for the Hurricane Motorsports replicas. http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2325/1...14676d67_o.jpg CSX3136 has also been there for a long time. It's a gorgeous narrow-hip roadster. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7460/1...91a10e3f_o.jpg CSX4231 http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2840/1...4ea7e581_o.jpg CSX7048 http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3558/1...70518e95_o.jpg GT40 P/1058 is a 1966 MkI road car owned by Peter Klutt, who is the owner of LMC. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7338/1...ce733433_o.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7413/1...30ecddc6_o.jpg http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3300/1...cbebd7ab_o.jpg Peter's original GT40 was accompanied by four 2006 Ford GTs including a Heritage Edition and a Tungsten Edition. http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2867/1...03e6b582_o.jpg Paintings by Camilo Pardo, designer of the 2005-06 Ford GT. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7360/1...970a0235_o.jpg http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3070/1...f49bb16f_o.jpg |
