Did the Cobra exist before Carroll Shelby visited AC?
It was claimed by another "member" on the "CS Muckracker" thread which he began that the Cobra existed before CS.
Seems revisionist history at its pinnacle.
But is this true? Hmmm. What is the factual support for this claim beyond the fact that the Cobra utilized the Ace chasis and body exists?
I'm not talking about the "Cobra" as an idea. Clearly the Allard is an example of American V8 power in a small chasis predating the Cobra. The question is did the Cobra itself as we know it exist before CS?
Wheres the proof, facts and references.
No nonsenical vitriolic insults which mean nothing.
Just the facts, please. Thank you.
