Title: A "Cobra" of a different color.

    Here's something a bit different; "COBRA  no. 349":

    Well, perhaps not a so different "color", rather a different 'continent'!   8)

Was never a big fan of the XC falcon

XY was the business with the XA also very good

I think the V8 in tbe GT's was the 351 Cleveland

Big money now

Basically the Aussie Shelby of its day

Lots of good you tube on these cars

Not sure of the development of the paint scheme and Cobra name, but looks like it might have been influenced by the 1978 Mustang II Cobra.
