Standin on the corner in Winslow Arizona
Such a fine site to see
Is a girl my lord in a flat bed ford
Slowin down to take a look at me....

Are ALL of the windows and images painted on that wall, i.e., the couple in the middle window upstairs, the bird on the left window, and the flat bed ford reflected in the downstairs window?

Too cool.

Hey Jerry, how much were they asking for the Cobra? I'm sure it has to be a kit, but hot $hit anyway.

There's a big Cobra rally that occurs on the west side of columbus every summer, I'd say that at least couple of thousand of those cars show up for it. Very cool to see and hear.

FB-excellent documentary-

pps: also note the front "bumpers" on the silver Cobra - it almost looks designed for a lift similar to a rear stand on a motorcycle???

I would own that Cobra, just as long as it had the 427 in it. : )

How much was the asking price?

Arthur Crutchlow, haha!?

Established in 1908, AC is the oldest British car manufacturer that is still making vehicles today.

The AC name came from the name of their first commercial 3-wheeler; The Autocarrier; that was designed and manufactured by John Weller.


That's certainly something I'd forgot with time. Thank the lord for Google otherwise I'd have looked a right chump!

The AC Ace was a pretty unique sports car in it day. It had an all aluminum body and was very light for its power. My Dad used to do tune ups on one occasionally in the early 50's.

I remember the Sunbeam Tiger too, with its Ford 260 V8. That was a real sleeper.

But the AC body and chassis were the birthplace of the Cobra. I think the 289 Cobra was better car than the 427 on real roads. And it got better gas mileage.

So, we are back to the "XB9 or XB12" question again then, huh?

(I'll take the 289 Cobra! ;) )
