Anybody have a picture of the Ghia 427 roadsters?
A magazine called Style Auto, long long out of print but in some libraries, pictured the dark blue roadster with lift-off hardtop and white painted Halibrands but I have yet to see any picture of the other Cobra big block Roadster that might have had one of these two serial numbers
CSX 5001 & CSX 5002
Another report on this same website said there are now Cobra roadsters of Shelby traditional body style using these chassis numbers. My question is, did anyone get pictures of the two body styles before these bodies were thrown away?

Ask "Mongo" over on the SAAC forum, as he has the full story on this one.

There are acutally quite a few different cars that share the same CSX5000 VINs, and oddly, they were all built by Shelby.

Howdy Everybody,
Here's a pic of the car that I'm talking about.......... http://www.carsonline.com.au/AC_428_Frua_cabriolet.jpg.
Anybody have any info on this car?
Wow! I started this thread almost 5 years ago!
I have built a frame for a Daytona Coupe w/ a 95" wheelbase kinda like Factory 5's car. But my house/land and shop got bought by a developement firm (If you think that you really own your home, you're just kidding yourself. Plus I only got paid about 75% of the value, which paid off the mortgage. This really sucked.), so I've got everything in storage gathering dust. I have since then bought a new house and on Friday, I'm going to pour concert for my new shop. It will be 32'x40' with a 4' slab infront of the doors. Plus I will have a 8'x12' concert gun room to store all my guns and reloading stuff.
Paul

Every year or two a Frue 428 comes up for sale in Hemmings Motor News. If you check old ads I would bet the owners still have some pictures. Most of the ads I have ever seen are for cars in England. Might check with the UK Cobra Forum People for pictures.
