6008 is an original race Cobra built at Thames Ditton in 1964 for Bruce Ropner who owned the Croft racing circuit in the north-east of England. He collected the car from the factory and recalls it was built with FIA cut-back doors from new. Some self-appointed experts seem to doubt this but it was his car, he brought it so he should know! I've known the car for many years and it's a genuine Cobra with lots of 'patina'!
It crops up on the Brooklands website as they did some work on it a few years back. It's definately NOT a replica/recreation/regurgitation car.....'tis the real deal.
