Very nice tribute by Richard Hudgins. I wholeheartedly agree: Pete Brock has never gotten the credit he so richly deserves. He was a major force in the Cobra success story, very much like Phil Remington.

I am pleased, too, it is called the "Brock" Coupe. A nice touch, and at the price they are asking, it should keep a lot of competitors at bay. A stoke of genius by SPF, to be sure.

The Coupes were the second "leg" in the Cobra saga. An incredible design that worked very well. Without Brock and his great engineering intuition, the Coupe story would have been a non starter, and the Cobra legacy would lie somewhere between the Tiger and the Corvette.
