Cobra_returns_to_Neils_Workshop_Small_
The body has been blocked, high filled then undercoated. 3 coats of duco were then applied followed by 2 coats of clear lacquer. The stripes were then applied and it was cut back before 3 flow coats applied. In 6 months time, the car has to be rubbed back and polished again.

9" Ford Carrier bearing race
The wear on this bearing almost looks as if the bearing caps had been milled down causing them to squash the bearing.

302 Engine installed
Here is my 302 engine installed. It's been bored .030, edlebrock heads, Victor Jr intake, 750 Holley, Brad Anderson cam, Ford Racing roller rockers. I got it from a '91 Mustang a guy built for drag racing. It's a "hot" sweet motor. We haven't cranked it yet, in the Cobra, but plan to next week.

Shelby Show 5/11/13
"Honey, yes, I need 2 gallons of distilled water and a bunch of microfiber cloths".
I crept at a snail's pace in a long line of Shelby's latest Mustangs for almost 30 minutes and it was starting to get hot. They finally let me in. I got out, stretched and poof! The green steam show. Luckily the hood was down because people could have been burned and the Tiger next to me wouldn't have been happy. Coolant shot out of the hood scoop like a toddler sneezing through his nose. Nothing some water and a 5/16" wrench couldn't fix but what a mess.
Thanks for the help, Dean! (RedBarchetta)
Woudn't have been the same without 'cooler heads' (pun intended) prevailing!

Autoweek, April 1, 1972
Have been told this is 2601. Sorry the quality is rough, and furthermore the censored data. This was actually sent to me via email from a collector.

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.

Up to 1964 Weber 48IDM brass banjo and bolt kit
This is a complete 48IDM Weber brass banjo fuel inlet with a 3/8" steel inlet pipe just as Shelby's race team fabricators made in the 1960s. This kit would be correct for 48IDM Weber system all the way up to 289 FIA Cobra chassis CSX2259 & CSX2260. These fittings also would have been present on 48IDM Weber systems that were converted to 48IDA systems.

Nash Bridges 'Cuda
This started life as a 1970 blue 340, 4 spd 'Cuda convertible. In 1996, it was the first of several barracuda's purchased by Nash Bridges Productions to be featured in the TV shows. Based on a real life yellow '71 Hemi 'Cuda convertible, all of the TV cars were updated with body parts as needed, painted yellow, to replicate that real '71 'Hemi 'Cuda. This car has been referred to as the Nash Bridges Cuda #1. It was used for practically all of the still shots, and most of the cruising, with the other 'Cuda's mainly used for chase and other stunt scenes. The 340 engine was blown during the production of the 1st season, and a crate 360 was installed. After the TV show ended, the cars were sold off, and a prior owner had the car restored, and a crate 426 Hemi installed, which is how the car is today. It's a great cruiser !!!
