For the first time in many years, there are 6 CSX cobras listed on Cobra Country and now a few on ebay. It will be interesting and fun to watch where the prices range and if the economy is rebounding as reported.

I would be interested if it had original BMW carpet:D

BMW carpeting is for Kirkhams.....Mercedes Benz is for CSX's:D

ttt.
What a hard crowd! Thanks for the trade offers BUT I'm really trying to downsize the collection. And to the clown that wanted to trade the Studebaker Lark.....I WILL find out where you live!;)

Dan,

If you need to reduce the collection, just ship it to me.

Dan, you need to add a Porsche to sweeten the deal. I heard there is a car dealer in Calif looking for one. He did this once before and is still under treatment, so take advantage of him while he is still on his meds ! His name is ..............................................

BUT trying to get the Studebaker properly licensed in California might push him over the edge!:D

The CSX has a new home in New York.

Congrats Dan - it is a beautiful Cobra!

NY?
That car can't do NY.
It'll freezze to death. There are lots of mean people out there.

There is also no antifreeze in it!!

Congrats.

Dan:

Congrats on selling CSX4148. It is a great car. As a quick update, CSX4349 should be shipped to HRE in the next few weeks. Took a look at it when I was in Vegas last week.

Wanted to ask you how the brushed aluminum body on your car has held up and what did you use to seal it. I am starting to consider the same finish instead of painting. I must say I am not a fond lover of polished. Looks great, but not very practical for my use.

Dano-
Congrats on finally unloading that pos;) :)

Really was a beautiful car. Someone is going to be very happy with it.

Congrats Dan. Just wasn't the right time for me.

Congrats Dan!
