Cool CSX2153 pamphlet

Hi, i bought this 4 page pamphlet last year. It has some pictures and racing history of this particular car. Anyone seen one of these before? Did one the recent owners have a few printed up, or was it given away at a show or one of the cobra clubs? Any ideas? Nice piece of Cobra memorabilia.

Paul...that is very cool.
When and if you can, are you able to do a scan of all the pages?

I'm at work and not near my library... but, one glitch...

I don't recall 2153 being a Sebring car; I think it was an independant.

It did DNF at Sebring in 1965..
..Ed Lowther/Bob Nagel/Sid Sinkel.

..also ran in 1964 as a "Customer car"...finished 12th

...but I don't believe it was a "Sebring" car.

It's no coincidence that this piece of literature was found in the UK, as that's where 2153 is today. This is a recently-produced piece, made by the owner of the car, who vintage-races it in Europe. You'll note a picture of the car as it is today in one of the photographs, taken at the Goodwood circuit in '02. These are available as "hand-outs" at the races in which the car participates. Nice, huh?
