Real deal or something like a factory five kit?

 

Real deal signed by Carroll Shelby

 

Damnit! I looked at the date on the receipt. You are younger than me. I guess my parents must have got me for about $43.50.

 

Is it an original, or one of the continuation cars you can buy now?

 

i think only you and charlie are the real old pharts on here

 

Original

 

Think I got both of mine for less than $40 total, another bonus to being Active Duty!

 

glad to see a Cobra with some miles on it!

 

Sorry... mine would have cost about $47.

 

we actually have a TMS member who has not one but two REAL 289 cobras .. i have a picture somewhere burried in my stuff .. he posts about once every 5 years on here .. amazing what he has had in the past 40 years ..

 

I guess better look for my cane and dentures when I get home.

 

the member i speak of once owned this car and is mentioned in this article ..

 

Irish Car Bombs in Dublin...... of course we could order them as that, more like Guinness and a shot of Bailey's, then drink half of the pint.

 

Nice. Lived in Dunlin for 3 years. Drank a lot of Guiness and Baileys. Glad I lived there when I was young and could drink a lot. That was a fun place to live!

 

St. Patrick's Day last year! Non-stop drinking, epic trip. Three guys missed the flight back to Frankfurt!

 

I'm not big on Guiness. Though if I was in Dublin, I'd have to have one.

 

i`m half irish ... half english .. mooneyhams from ireland 200 years ago .. hyatts from england 200 years ago .. mooneyham shortened to moon somewhile back

 

And it is amazing there! Never had a hangover as much as we drank either. And we had at least a 6-pack before getting on the plane in Frankfurt!

 

 

I've never had a real hangover, and as much as I've had to drink at times, it's a real wonder. My 21st birthday...well, lets just say i'm **** glad I didnt have to pay the tab!
