50 Years

CSX3141 My ultimate auto then, and now!  I was 19 years old and found ad in Comp Press, and purchased the car with my father's help from Bob Guest Sport's Car Center.  A high school friend and I drove the car from TX to IL.  The car has been on and off the road since.  MG

Thanks so much for posting!

To say I am envious is putting it mildly

Yes, the car has an original factory installed Lincoln Cruise-o-matic transmission as used in the Thunderbolt project done in 1965-66 at Shelby American in the day.

Very Nice, thanks for posting.  Your Lotus Europa in the background?

Bitchin Cobra!  Love the color. 

How's the fear factor when the tranny does the 1-2 shift at WOT?
