Default Original 427SC on Leno's Garage

This one was saved from the recent CA fires.

Actually a competition model

Jay lets a Homeless Cobra stay at his garage. I can just hear Jay "Poor little Lost Cobra, why don't you come stay with me until this is all over".

What an amazing sound that engine makes.

This video is mentioned on about every car publication. Glad to see the interest in Cobras appears to be alive and well still.

I thought it was good episode, comp not S/C but great job Jay!
I did prefer the old gold stripes as it gave the car flare however great in just black too!
Suprised it was not in Lynn's garage.

I like the stripes, but either the stripes or the white sidepipes would have had to go.

I like the stripes too, but then I'm a half-a-bubble off anyway TommyRot.

That was my neighbor's Cobra. Its a real comp car that is a bit different from a SC and setup for the full windscreen or half screen. I think it had those stripes n the 70s and were added
again much later in its life.
