Apart from the "fewer than 20" 289 equipped three speed automatics
Oh, and the four, 427 equipped three speed automatics
and, the twin supercharged 427 "super snake" equipped with a three speed automatic.
Which part of this "does not compute"?
It's a funny old thing History, it can't be changed

Ah mate, I know there was a small number of auto Cobras....something like 2% were thus "afflicted".
When I think "Cobra", "automatic transmission" is just not something that springs immediately to mind. Sorry. Does not compute
I'm happy to slag-off at Dean because of his auto trans. as well as his Chev. motive power...and he's happy to throw it back at me.
Hit me, Deano!
Cheers,
Glen |
