FYI, after the first few Cobras, which were based on the AC Bristol, the rest WERE American made, entirely within the U. S. The design of the Cobra changed over the length of its production, culminating in the 427SC model, a real performance monster, and a pig to drive. Good looking car, tho, and an original Cobra these days is worth 250 grand and up.....mostly up. Only 352 of the 427SC’s were made, but it took the industry nearly 20 years to equal their performance. Wish I had one.......
