If the Super Cobra is worth 5mil what is the Flip Top worth?

OK I found the pics on a disc but had trouble posting here so I put them on a flicker account. Not sure when must be around mid-80's when I inquired about the purchase of this Cobra. I asked several questions about the current condition and originality of the Cobra. Was told some story about the wife and a pocketbook which I believe has been told elsewhere. Not sure how much but he suggested to send some some money(a few bucks) for pics of the cobra in it's present state. These pics were not taken by me but I believe the owner or someone for him. I recently scanned them onto a disc. If someone wants to post the pics here fine but I just uploaded them on flicker. I would have to spend some time in my books(grand-fathers) to find the exact dates because I clearly remember purchasing a mint Ferrari from Luigi Chinetti's personal collection.

To this day I still don't understand why the collectible Cobras are so underpriced compared to others especially Ferrari.

I know those Hermes Birkin handbags cost a fortune but having to sell this Cobra for a handbag......

Onyx Rider, realise its been a few years since you obtained these pics, but do you remember if this was the oil cooler or entrance/ducting to it that I have indicated on the attached photo of yours, must have been mounted flat if it is? Thanks.

In the early 1980's these pics were taken by the owner or someone for him and sent to me. I never inspected this Cobra personally at that time. I did see it race from time to time in vintage races during this time. Since my grandfather and Luigi Chinetti lived in Greenwich, once he agreed to sell an alloy bodied Ferrari from his personal collection I didn't fly out to see it in person at the time. I only have those pics and I'm sure someone more qualified can answer that question.

Peace
