DubbsFaris Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Is this one of the TI Cobras? http://www.pim.net/11272011Cobra427.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MY500SS Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Other than the Terlingua Yellow transverse nose strip, what makes this CSX Cobra a Terlingua model? She is pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DubbsFaris Posted September 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 The short story is there are Terlingua Cobras built by Shelby and licensed by Bill Neale and Terlingua Racing. Bill made a promise to a friend he built one for that he would limit these to a total of 10 Cobras. They never built 10 originals, and a couple years ago it was proposed that Bill allow the remaining Cobras to be built. I would guess this would likely be one of the those if it is real. But Im not sure this is real. Like you said, I see no specific things in the photo that shows it is one of the real ones. Im sure some of our owners would be able to tell right away though. My understanding is there was one that sold to an outsider. I was curious if this were it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPRSNK Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 It does't have any of the other markings. Teringua Racing Team down the side, the "2-10" or whatever number it was on the front fascia. They did only make 10 of them. I know where 3 are.

dh777 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 I saw it up for sale a while back I think they where asking 120 for it. I don't think it was a Terlingua car. but for what that car was, it seemed like a pretty good deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomkay Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 I wanted a Pantera sooo bad when I was young but couldn't afford it. Used they were only about $5000-6000 back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffJ Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) oooooo...FE aluminum Roush engine, carbon fiber body..... I likey!!!! I wouldn't care if it were one of the Terlingua one's or not. That would just be a bonus! Edited September 10, 2013 by JeffJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can recall looking at a couple at Lincoln Mercury Dealerships new in 1971-73 and thinking, "WOW! $7,500 for a new one. That was all the money in the world."

DubbsFaris Posted September 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 I know, right? I really want a Pantera, and I really want a Terlingua Cobra. I've had a few chances to own each, but what holds me back is what I need- I need a Ford GT, Heritage please. But, I am always open to a 12k project Pantera. I don't know, i think im getting obsessive over this whole car thing. They all sound so damn good to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
