Curious as to the details on your Cobra? Restoration project? 289 car?

No a very rare 1000 series 2005 alloy bodied continuation 427SC AC Cobra CSX 1013, it was the only time since the late 60's that Shelby and AC produced cars Together, only 14 were built, I had number 13

BIG congrats Mark and welcome aboard!
WoW on the car as 578878 is a Jack Douglass FG Yenko known and registered here on the SYC.
Also isn't this car thought to be one of the group heading to Douglass seen in the Yenko transport pictures posted here recently?
Has this car been in other hands since him or is C'Lil the swapper and new Cobra wheelman?

Ok long story, I chased the AC Cobra last year and the only way I could get the Cobra was to trade it for my Hemi Charger. The guy who I got the Yenko from missed the deal on the Cobra, but found me and tried to buy the Cobra from me and I said no thank you, he then sold his classic cars and was offered the choice of one car from the guy who bought his cars as part of the deal, then he thought how do get the cobra from me? so he few out to California took the Camaro especially as he new it's was the best bet to get my Cobra, I gave in and the rest is history, that's about as clear as mud reading back, but that's how it happened. Yes theres pictures of the car on the Yenko truck and notes written on one of the pictures by Don Yenko and a ton of other original docs.

I just sent all the title copies to the previous owner, I hope you got them. I had copies going back to the original owner in 1973.
