Very cool
Most replicar owners would not put there cars to this test, but what a great thing to see an original car doing what it was built for, Way to go.

What I liked about this competition was that there wasn't an original car, of any make, that wasn't modified to some degree. Some more heavily than others. In that respect, what Bruce did was level the playing the field.

HI LLoyds 1. Bruce did a great job out there but he is not in fact the only original owner still around. I have a local friend in Boulder Colo who purchased his 427 cobra new in 1967 and drove the car from LA all the way out to Pennsylvania where he was living at the time. Chuck still owns the car

Those mods are real nice. How much do you think it would cost to get a Cobra looking like that?

Making the mods is cheap compared to the 50 years of continuous testing and lifetime of learning that Bruce put into figuring out what mods to make.
