Also, was that a real 427 Cobra in the bare aluminum finish?

You must have missed the blue targa up against the cliff side with its whole right side bashed in.
I got a chance to talk with Rob, the aluminum Cobra owner. It's a no-expense spared Kirkham replica... well, sort of replica. It's as close to the real thing as you can get. The Kirkham aluminum body is the same one used by Shelby for their new Cobras. Rob's even has an aluminum 427 side-oiler in there. If you look in one of my previous posts, you can see the picture of the cobra in my side-rear view mirror. That was on the up-Stunt-down-Piuma section.
What a blast to have that in your rear view while your carving up the canyon! My favorite part of the day.
