OK since no one else answered.

I think Jay Nordstrom was the first to put drag radials on his Cobra.

I remember seeing them at ET Automotive actually before he saw them. Ernie was building the engine for my Cobra at the time.

Is that right Gary?

BTW:
On the question above I am not sure I know the answer.

I am asking for my personal info so I can email him. I suppose it is a good question though.

I think Stretch moved to Wyoming or up north of Yellowstone somewhere. I have emailed him back and forth since his move but I lost his email address somehow.

OK here is another hint.

It got the name because of the color.

OK. This one has gone on long enough.

Tom Meadows gave James' ERA the name "Invisible Cobra" because of the color of the car.

If you didn't get a chance to the the car before James sold it. You missed a seeing very nice ERA.
