Heavy Metal: Shelby Continuation Cobra & KMP owners post up pics of your Cobra

[REAL 1]

Thought this might be a good time for owners of Shelby Continuation Cobras and KMP Cobra owners to post up pics of their Cobras. This might help our newest CC member too who just purchased a continuation aluminum Shelby Cobra by seeing other Cobras. I think it would be a good sticky for visitors too since they can see pics of these Cobras and the varying specs and builds.

I also do not mean to exclude owners of fiberglass Shelbys so post pics of your car too or any original Cobras if guys owning those want to post those pics. I just thought the title "Heavy Metal" was cool.

Post up your pics. I will post pics of CSX 4206 this weekend.

Please limit comments to technical issues and aesthetic so this can remain a predominantly a photo thread and learning thread. I would ask our esteemed moderators to try and enforce this request.

Edit: P.S. It's a great photo. Good light and setting.

Here's one and I added a comment just for you under the pic. I'm lousy with the pics so if you want to post the red one go ahead but please just post that one.

And since you posted about tech stuff you have a '65 motor in your continuation or a replica of 65 ?

Mine is a '65 NASCAR SO. Will post pics. As soon as my soon wakes up.. I don't know how to post pics either.

Sweet Cobra in the link. Love the Sunburst wheels! Ironic how back then guys threw them to the side for Halibrands and today those wheels are prized.

Who knows the name of that color?

All those pics on MY account I believe were taken by me(except the fliptop and Dick Smith's Cobra).

That is my 427 Cobra and if you find a copy of that anywhere on the internet it was copied from my flickr account. Sundude or another may have copied some to add to their original Cobra site.

Also the black 289 with gold stripes is the Cobra I refer to as my brothers and the "Compton Cobra" name which I made up for the title of the piece I wrote about. The black Cobra with NY plates with silver stripes I drove often but was not mine. When I wanted to purchase it the Cobra was not for sale. When it became available years later I was no longer interested in it. That one is CSX 3053 the last of the S/C's. and now red.

Is this for alloy cars only? I've got some shots of mine but it's carbon fiber.

So the new AC continuation cars , genuine AC's (no FakeyDoos) that come from the factory with GM LS engines would be welcome on this thread? I would like to see some more pictures of them. On the web sight it says they have done some cars and would like to do about ten cars a year.

Albeit there were very few in Sapphire Blue.
