No kidding about the King Cobra!
Historybuff,
I agree that Heasley would be a horrible choice. Of course the latest scrap with the hatchet job he did on SAAC but also his lack of attention to detail.
I work on both the Pacesetter Lotus and the USRRC Cobra featured in the Shelby book you mentioned. We spent the better part of the morning moving cars around and worked our rears off at the Monterey Historics for the photos in the book. Imagine the disappointment when the owner got a copy only to find that despite all of the Lotus badging he somehow thought it was a King Cobra! This was not a small typo but a glaring error easily fixed with a small amount of research. It did not give the credit due to either the true King Cobras but also a disservice to the Pacesetter Lotus which has it's own link to Shelby and I storied history of its own.
