Default 289 Dragonsnake to Auction


This just pushes a lot of the right buttons for me with an interesting history as well: A rare 1965 Shelby 289 Cobra Dragonsnake slithers to auction | Hemmings Daily

One of my all time favorites is this car.
Partial to body color and flares.

A very nice example, a friend I grew up with did the restoration.

Prior to the restoration I would see this car running around Watkins Glen during the Vintage Grand Prix(s) The driver was always an elegant woman. Mrs. JJ Rodman.. She could really wheel this car and you could tell she really loved driving it. I always enjoy seeing her. " The Cobra Lady"
Can you guess why my car is the same color? ;-)

That's one of the meanest looking 'Comp' bodied 289s. Great colour and wheel combo

Cheers,
