This bad boy has some powerful venom. Even after 60 years, a lot of modern performance  cars can't handle this snakes bite.☠️

It's an awesome  car but you'd have to wear asbestos leggings getting in and out of it.

I would expect that the warmed up 289 version of this car (pics 1 to 3) would be a better handling, more user friendly road car.  I love it in any form regardless, even the original 6 cyl. AC Ace (pics 4/1953 & 5); such a classic design.

Yes Steve, it is the Wix edition. They also have a red version, extremely rare, I've only ever seen one.😳

great pics Geno, and thanks Tony for the Wix confirmation, and to Jack for the extra pics. We have a strong Cobra Club here in Victoria, I've seen a group of them on the road to a rally/event. Fantastic sight.

@perrone1 I have the blue Wix edition. Love the burnished effect on those side pipes. You can just smell the singed skin.
