My name is Sue Bohne and I own M123012. I do have a some paperwork that came with the car and would be happy to share. I live in Washington State now, but did purchase the car from a gentleman in Wisconsin, when I was living in Illinois about 3 years ago.

Hi Guys (and Gals). Just purchased Excalibur Cobra 033 and I'm looking for any support material available. (Owners manuals, diagrams, whatever) I found some old threads and I believe this was Ernie's car that he tooled around with in Hawaii. Still looks and drives great.

Thanks for any help.

Hope you don't mind me posting this here...

Hagerty just published an article about Alice Preston and her long association with the Excalibur Automobile Corp. and its famous lineup of neoclassic cars. No mention of their Cobras, but figured you might appreciate it nonetheless.

There is a photo of mechanical drawings in the article.
Bob Bennett has the Excalibur Cobra mechanical drawings.
There are photos of the Excalibur Cobras under construction on the Bennett Coachworks website.
The Cobras were Bobs baby, he built the first cars.

Hello all-
Does anyone have a copy/scan of Excalibur Cobra build specs or operator's manual?

I am willing to "donate" for a high res scan for your efforts, if not freely available.
