Who made the first cobra replica

[grumpy]

fellas,

Watch out that you get facts infected with meatisms. He insists to this day that ARNTZ was the "father", "pioneer", "founder", "originator", and dozens of other paraphrases for the first replica COBRA, builder. Just a person he had been told as being the first, once Meat was sold on the fact, it became just that, a "meatism".

The time line he shares is a 80% or so actual timeline of facts for the same reasons.

We all fall prey to the "tales of yore", no ones fault, lawyers win huge cases on the lack of facts and peoples re-running of memories. It's also much easier to agree as disagree since proving such takes a bit of effort.

CowTown, Tim of ALLIED FIBERGLASS and the year 1968. Several bodies actually adorned old wrecked out COBRA's until the values of them rose to allow for shipments of panels from ACltd/UK.

Lost facts reminds me of the CORVACE that raced in the 1957/8 era and kicked ole' Shels butt in his MASER for various laps on the SCCA/USSRC circuits where they crossed, but SHELBY has been sold as having the "first" idea of American Iorn in a AC, not so, by track records and pics.
