Hi guys,

No Pantera content here, but most of you like Shelbys too.

Anybody who has read anything about Cobra Daytona Coupes knows there were six 
originally built, and one (CSX 2287) has been lost for at least 35 years, 
whereabouts unknown.  Well, it finally turned up this week.

The lady that had possession for 35+ yrs turned up as a jane doe in LA.  
Supposedly she gave all the cars to someone two days before.  There's a 
lawsuit now between the guy and her parents...especially the step-mother.  
The lady that died/suicide worked at a dept store. Not a bad 401K.....but she 
hated the car.

Check it out:

THIS car in a barn somewhere and buying it for a song...)
