Anaconda

Oops - so my recollection isn't too accurate then! Rick is who I was thinking of. Was Russ Clifford the Robnell distributor at the time? If not, I'm going to sit aside quietly and not add anything further to this thread!

Most of the history I posted Craig was prior Russ Clifford distributing the Robnell.

The first demo car built in Queensland was a black car with the rear bulkhead upholstered as the seat backs but in a bench like form.

After the demise of Anaconda a John Smith of Wynnum became the RMC agent but his involvement with RMC came to an end when a friend of his wife regularly saw him driving a pretty young blonde from Tamborine around in the cobra. She (the wife) eventually took him to the cleaners.

In fact, when I was hunting for a cobra I was referred to John Smith and I arranged to look at the demo car. When I arrived at Johns place he showed me the black car all shiny in the shed but refused me a drive as he had just polished it and didn't want to get it dirty.

That ended his likelihood of a sale.

Rick Percival still had his Cobra, powered by a 302 with a small B&M on top. He dropped into my Company in West end one day and that's when I found out about the remaining three cars.
