If you don't win outright you will get as a parting gift the "Home Edition of the Shelby Frame Game!"
I allude to that (you showed me that picture long ago), yet for others, the secret to where this was taken is "in the picture", you just have to know what you are looking at, that's all.

I guess I forgot that you had the "secret handshake" of the Brotherhood of Cobra frames, Weybridge chapter.

I actually think I have a Polaroid of several of those pictures floating around in an old camp trunk in my parents basement

Are you referring to the coil spring main-frame-only frames on the wall?

David,
This is slightly off subject but if a guy was to scratch build a Cobra these days and try to stay relatively true to the originals and get the advantages of the newer chassis geometry and build quality, where would that person acquire a set of drawings that would work. I've seen the Cobra Restorer's drawings and I agree, they are awful. However, I was able to glean enough information from them to complete my chassis- after scratching my head several times each time I looked at them.

I would love to have a decent set of drawings for reference- not that I'm anxious to start on another scratch build now that mine is finished. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Bob
