I am the first owner of the last AC Cobra made, CSX3360. I purchased it from Grappone Froed in Concord, NH. in 1967 for $6000.00. I owned it until 1977 when I sold it for $10,000.00 and thought it was amazing that I could sell a car for two thirds more than what I paid for it. I don;t remember who I sold it to or where it is now, but hopefully they might see this post and chime in. I put about 6000 miles on it in 10 years mostly at night on the beautiful rolling roads of New England. The highest speed I ever had it to was 170 MPH on a straight section of Interstate 89 north of Concord, NH.
Let me add a few details. It was red, no racing stripe, still had on it the original blue dot tires, and 427 engine with a single four barrell carburator, aluminum body on a steel tubular chassis.
