Question Looking for info on this Cobra

Hi all,
My name is Eldon and I am usually over on the ffcobra.com site. I was told about this site and was trying to find out some information about a Cobra that my grandfather had his picture take in. The photo was taken in Estes Paark, Colorado and I have attached the photo. Could anyone ID this car for me!
Thanks,
Eldon

No I can't, but it isn't a B&B, or Classic Roadster. More pictures would definately help. I'm sure someone here will recognize something unique that may lend a clue. Good luck.

OK. I have 2 more. It was described as a '66, so it is not a FFR at least.
Here they are:

With the higher than normal rollbar, I would say it looks like a Shamrock?

Apparently that is the consensus. The Shamrocks have a REALLY laid back hoop on the roll bar and the steering column is apparently a typical SV setup. Thanks guys for the info! Now if I can just find the guy that owns this so I can thank him for letting my grandad sit in for a while.

Sorry Eldon,
It doesn't look like anyone's car in the Mile Hi Club that I recognize.
Probably someone who lives in Estes?
