Tim, good seeing you too. Yes it seems the street cars are getting some love finally. So many were converted and now many of those are being returned to original. For sure it will be interesting to see what happens with the B-J street car. Bill, about 100 cars were built with 428s with most of those being 3200 series. A few early 3300 cars also had them.

Is this the car Wayne Carini had/sold on his show recently?

----I don't think so, Bill. The Carini car was in the New England area and the car pictured seems to have had a west coast history. Add to that, the Carini Cobra had nice original interior with a bit of patina that I don't think anyone with a brain would have changed. The car pictured has an absolutely brand new interior. Just my thoughts......Bill S

Thanks Bill, I'll bet you're right. The Carini car sold to someone in California, I think.

----Phil,,,While I was watching the Scottsdale craziness Carini came on and was interviewed beside a green 427 Cobra. Turns out that was the Cobra that was on his show. That Cobra should never have been touched other than fluffing. Every ounce of originality is gone. It was even repainted in &quot;metallic&quot; green rather than the correct solid BRG, and the beautiful original interior,,,,,,,GONE. Kind of made me sick as I remember Carini saying not to even wipe the dust off when it was on his show. All about chasing the dollar. The owner had every chance to make as much or more by leaving it original......Bill S

----By the way, yours looks absolutely great!!!
