				Researching any info re: Paul Cunningham, Competition Cobra privateer
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
		Hi All!  I am researching any information, photos, stories, etc. regarding my deceased step-father, Paul Cunningham.  Paul was one of the few very early privateer factory prepared competition Cobra competitors against the factory team cars. Our Cobra was a very early chassis and may have been originally a 260ci Mark I, when we owned it, it was a 4bbl 289ci Mark II, no hood scoop only five rows of louvres at rear of the hood, red paint with a black and silver racing stripe flared fenders, Halibrand knock-off rims, meatball #37 or variation and sponsored by Powerine  Oil Company out of Santa Fe Springs, CA. Paul was killed in a racing accident in November of 1963 at Willow Springs Raceway while leading the event.  I would appreciate any information, photos, stories, etc. that you might want to share as all of our race related memorabilia was lost during my Mom's moving back to Illinois, everything is gone, including my Mom.  Please stay in touch with me by email if possible at  michael@heinekegroup.com or call 562-665-6778.
 
Bless you all and stay safe in these troubling times.
