Subtle location chosen for your pics Kurt!
The stripe and roundels have done the trick.
Great job.

CSX 2541 belonged to my good friend Mark Winkelman in north Texas, and it is the first real, original cobra I ever got to touch close up and actually sit in. He would drive it out to our monthly club meetings. I just loved the white and red interior. Eventually he sold it, along with his '68 GT500KR convertible and aquirred original 427 street cobra (I dont have the CSX3### handy). That 427 street version was the first (and only) original cobra I actually have had a ride in! What a thrill, thanks for the memories!

Here's a couple of gents with one of our Superformance 289 FIAs. I understand they may actually know what it is!

The passenger is Ross Henry, the force behind the Hi-Tech Automotive built Superformance (and Shelby) 289s. He has invested years of research and thousands of hours in prototypes and samples to get these to this stage.
