2247.0. "New Cobra Daytona" by LEMAN::CHEVAUX (Patrick Chevaux @GEO, DTN 821-4150) Tue Apr 05 1994 15:43

    Are you interested in transforming your AC Cobra 289 in a genuine Cobra
    Daytona Coup� ?
    
    That's what Frenchman Robert Sarailh has done with his own CSX.... chassis 
    and with the agreement and support of Carroll Shelby, the Shelby Heart
    Foundation and Pete Brock.
    
    6 Cobra Daytonas were built in the early 60's in order to beat the
    Ferrari GT's. Sarailh now owns the 7th Daytona. This car was shown at a
    number of trade shows (Geneva Auto Show, ...) and it was raced in last
    Sunday's historic race at Le Castellet.
    
    If you want your own Daytona all you have to do is bring your Cobra to
    Robert Sarailh (needless to mention your Cobra must be a real Cobra).
    For a certain amount of $ you'll get a real Daytona as originally
    designed by Pete Brock and built by Carroll Shelby. A portion of the
    money will be given to the Shelby Heart Foundation.

    Patrick, your note makes it sound as if an AC Cobra 289 is something
    that we all have :-)

    Well, let's dream for a while ... I'm still thinking of buying a kit
    (if I can find the money and the space to build it ...)

    already have a few Miuras (1:18 scale) in the body shop ... and a few
    HO electric locomotives (not mentioning a pile of 6 month old urgent
    due invoices)
