Cobra Sign for Sale
It occurred to me that someone - most probably in the CCCQ - might like to have this for their garage/shed? I am thinking about $60.00 and I could arrange delivery at a Club breakfast. It steel and aluminium and is 56cm across.
Cheers,
Merv

Thanks Brad, but Dimis is paying the freight to Melb. Wish I had two. They are great quality.

I'm happy to report that the "Eagle has landed" or rather for those who can decipher Portuguese " de-capelo has a new den" I repeat " de-capelo has a new den".
Now all we need to do is move into our new place, so I can put it up. 
But unfortunately, that wont be happening for a little while yet 
Many thanks Merv, who was more than happy to do the deal and kindly send forth to me on a simple forum exchange (handshake deal so to say).

Hi Greg - all good. I assume you mean the car not the sign . Car sold in 3-4 weeks. At any point in time there are probably about 10-12 people across Australia looking to buy a Cobra for that sort of money and have the cash and travel time to do so. They are not like Mazdas when it comes to selling ...
Had about 4 serious buyers - surprisingly all only wanting a Ford motored Cobra - and it went to a very nice home in Cairns with a father and son as the new owners up there.

Very fortunate to sell your Cobra and I have no luck is selling my C4 corvette Rag top which is a safer / better car for less money.
Plenty low ballers on various well known car websites. |

Yes what these cars are worth to us is not always the same as what they are worth to another buyer. In most ways classic/vintage cars (MG, Healey, Merc, Porsche, etc.) with history and originality are easier to value.

I guess MG,Healeys etc....are limited numbers,
Cobras are not.
For every new Cobra that hits the road, has to make selling one even harder!

Great news Merv.
That give us all a bit of confidence I guess......esp the Ford guys
It's sorting thru all the dreamers and tyre kickers that I hate when selling, then the worry of theft as well.
Hope you're enjoying your new toy! |
