The COBRA did not hit the streets until 1963 with the 427 coming along a couple of years later. If you look at the California registration, it's registered as a 1961 Bristol which would make it much earlier than the cobra and much more like the slab sides than the FIA car it's been made to look like. I'm not sure what you have, but I am reasonably sure it's not a Shelby Cobra of the 427 variety nor is it an AC Bristol as the registration would indicate.
