Hemmings Motor News, January 1980
This is 2286 again. Mr. Soprano, owner of Motor Classics, acquired the car around Aug/Sep/Oct 1979 for a then bargain (though certainly an outrageous sum of money for the time) price, which was somewhere around $80k to $90k. Was probably already a 6-figure car by late 1978.
Sources indicate that he had the car up for sale for awhile. He never disclosed his price in print, but revealed it to serious inquirers. From Nov 79 thru Mid 80 the price was $150k.
The car wasn't sold until 1982, and it is likely that the price paid was a good deal more than what he had been asking 2 years prior.

Hemmings Motor News, June 1981
Car was being offered for $165k at some point in 1979, more than what a Daytona would go for then. Probably the weirdest cobra ever made.

Fiberglass Cut for Hinge
OK, this may be a little more fiberglass than you are willing to cut. I don't know how much would be cut with the "Original" SB hinge. I have not had any problems on my doors. This picture is not my door, but a similar one.

Mickey Thompson S/R radials 26x12
M/T S/R radials size 26x12. Tires work great are much stickier than a standard street radial IMHO.

Mickey Thompson S/R radials
M/T S/R radials size 26x12 are on the REAR only.
Like the tires a lot...much stickier than the old Dunlop G/T Qualifiers.

FE pilot bushing
FE pilot bushing. One on left has interference due to a batch of Quicktime BH's being a bit shallow (from late 2009/early2010). One on right is a simple, cheap approach rather than a new BH or spacers.

Original Cobra From My Home Town
A Cobra comes home: Now worth $1 million, rare car returns to Lincoln.The last time this car was in Lincoln, its owner had just finished grad school and had no idea it could make him a millionaire.
Steve Woehrle paid $5,300 for the second-hand Shelby Cobra from an O Street corner car dealer in 1973, and now he was shifting it into drive and running north out of town, first to a teaching gig in South Dakota and then to a long-term tenure in Minnesota.
Woehrle and his Cobra are returning to Lincoln next weekend, but the retired professor won’t be behind the wheel. Instead, the car he bought 45 years ago will arrive by truck and trailer, with a security detail and an estimated value of more than $1 million.
College student bought this 1965 AC Shelby Cobra in Lincoln for $5,300 in 1975. Today, it has estimated value of more than $1 million. The car is on display at Okoboji Classic Cars but will return to Lincoln July 13-15 during the Mustang Club of America’s national show outside Pinnacle Bank Arena.
