Quote from Winchester Motorsport:

COB 6008: " You will not find a more original example of a racing Cobra. Very well prepared car has run 1.28 at Goodwood, qualified 5th, 2007. "

Ron, Trevor, SunDude Etc

The picture of COB 6008 has " II " before the COB, Same as in the rear license plate in a picture in the advertisement I have been mentioning, any meaning ?

Mentioned also that COB 6008 has been raced by Sir John Whitmore,Dan Gurney, Jack Sears. Derek Bell, Jochen Mass, Richard Attwood , Jackie Oliver, Tony Jardine, Gerry Marshall and Mark Surer, the names appear on the Cobra.

Recent period races have been at the British Grand Prix, 2006, 2007 and 2009

Sure has been an interesting learning experience..........

I'm pretty sure the "II COB" is simply the car's license plate / vehicle registration number. I've never been to the U.K., but I think it works differently from here in North America; that is, the vehicle registration / license plate is tied to the car, not the owner, and is passed on when the owner sells it to another person. But Trevor would know better than me how it works in Ol' Blighty.
