The only thread I ever remember on a Matlack built Cobra was this one: New cobra owner in south jersey that has a pic or two in it.

I don't know if this will help you any but it may give you some line on other information about him. It does describe his hand built Cobras pretty well

Thanks Ron, this is the car I purchased. I was looking for some history on these cars if anyone had. Apparently he built 20 of them over the years. Not to many on the market built by him for sale .
