As AC Cars continues it's descent into Lubinski hell, I saw this is the New Yawk Times:

Not a bad looking thing...but it just doesn't have that Cobra appeal, IMHO.

I believe the original Cobra body lines are classic and no updates or newer versions are going to appeal as much to us older guys. But that car wold get a lot of looks.

I just got my June copy of Hot Rod yesterday and there is yet another Shelby Mustang being born. It is the Shelby GT500CR. It is being built on a 1967 Mustang body and chassis by Classic Recreations for Shelby and the base price is $119K up to $200K for the fully loaded version. It also stated that his Continuation Cobras built from old chassis he had stored away had been a success so this Mustang should do well also. It looks like a 69 Mustang with the Shelby stuff added on but the motor is new.

That is a nice looking car.

The price tag is not really reflective of the costs, I venture to say, "they are gouging".
