I think this is the first Cobra we've got on the register - Build Number 372 of 400 ever produced. This is a Full matching numbers example which we spotted advertised on Ebay Australia in February 2022, asking $250,000. These cars have unsurprisingly shot up in value like so many others..

At the time the car was offered, the seller noted the following comments: "This Cobra is at the latter end of the production cycle, hence she got all the goodies like Power steering, Air-Conditioning & Full electric windows. Rarer than the legendary XY GT Falcon this Cobra presents in excellent condition overall. She performs on the road as good as she looks. The interior is also excellent with minimal flaws. Her 4.9Lt engine was fully rebuilt some 15,000km's ago. Inspections welcomed by appointment."

Hoping to get a few more of these legends on the register soon..
