Looking for info on this Cobra
Hi all,
My name is Eldon and I am usually over on the ffcobra.com site. I was told about this site and was trying to find out some information about a Cobra that my grandfather had his picture take in. The photo was taken in Estes Paark, Colorado and I have attached the photo. Could anyone ID this car for me!
Thanks,
Eldon

No I can't, but it isn't a B&B, or Classic Roadster. More pictures would definately help. I'm sure someone here will recognize something unique that may lend a clue. Good luck.

OK. I have 2 more. It was described as a '66, so it is not a FFR at least.
Here they are:

With the higher than normal rollbar, I would say it looks like a Shamrock?

I have no idea, but how many replicas have 20 snap hooks attached to the top of the windshield for the top?????
And no holes in the doors for side windows???

Apparently that is the consensus. The Shamrocks have a REALLY laid back hoop on the roll bar and the steering column is apparently a typical SV setup. Thanks guys for the info! Now if I can just find the guy that owns this so I can thank him for letting my grandad sit in for a while.

Sorry Eldon,
It doesn't look like anyone's car in the Mile Hi Club that I recognize.
Probably someone who lives in Estes?
