Cobras in Movies and Television
Hello everyone! This is my first post, so I'm kind of nervous, but I love what I've seen so far. I don't own any type of Cobra (dream car, of course) or any other car worth mentioning, so I won't. I'm almost 26 years old and I WILL have one before I turn 30.
Here's my question as off the wall as it is:
I'm looking for ANY and ALL information on Cobras in movies or Television with as much specific info that can be found. I've been searching the web for the last three days and have come up with zilch. I wouldn't say zilch, I've found a lot of very cool websites dedicated to one of the best cars ever (just my opinion of course). I just haven't found anything that has to do with what I'm looking for. The movies I can recall off the top of my head are:
Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle
Bad Boys
Gone in 60 Seconds (remake) Glimpse of one
Another movie with Dolph Lundgren, not sure of the title though
That's it, sigh.....Can anyone help with info, websites, anything?

The 1960s TV series, "Honey West", featured a Cobra for actress, Anne Francis, as her primary mode of transportation. That car is now owned by SAAC Director, Joyce Yates, of Nashville, Indiana.
"Honey West" is the only TV series I can think of that used the Cobra.

"Bitten by the Snake" -- by Jim Colman order his tape from Cobra Country.com--best video out there with Cobras only--late 90's
Gumball Rally--a classic Cobra is the stars car--early 70's
First year of the TV detective series "Honey West"--70's
Heroine drove an automatic Cobra from time to time
2min clip in the A&E series Voyager about Enzo Ferrarii--shows the Ferrarii team getting beaten by Shelby and others in Cobras in the mid 60's
Check Shelby Americans website you can order videos of some of the Shelby racing days etc.--haven't seen them
Cobras have briefly appeared in a some movies and tv programs--say one or two scenes max.

The Elvis Presley movie Spin Out I think it was and I believe there was another movie in which he had a Cobra or one made a brief appearance in it. I beieve that Shelby made some stretched Cobras for Paramount Studios so you might check their web site if they are still in operation.
