Default Early photos of csx 2136???

Could any of you point me to any color photos of 2136 in its early days? Ive found lots of photos of it since its restoration, and some old b/w. I would like to see it in its different liveries through the years.


Thanks Troy

I found this on YouTube. Not sure if it's correct but....

1963 Shelby 289 Cobra Roadster Le Mans Racing Car - YouTube

The early photos are still in b/w but maybe this will help.

Those are correct Mike I have the still captures from that shoot. The car was originaly black, then got refurbished at Shelby being painted blue, but maybe it was never raced in that configuration before Leslie bought it.

Ok, sorry those are not of any help. You probably already have these too but not everyone is aware of this site. CSX 2136

Good luck with your search.
