That flat fender FIA car (second from the end) is gotta be 1.5M+. Prolly the most valuable unless one of them has big time race history.

Are Hot Rodded Limey British roadsters with American engine conversions actually worth anything???

I thought the Rat Rod market fad had run it's course. I guess it's the blue paint that must make these cars actually worth something and/or desireable. It is a pretty shade of blue.

What do you do in the rain? Not a one of them has a damn top and only one has windshield wipers. Not very good cars!

What's funny is that none of those cars have the same shade of blue on them! Yet their all the "same" color code!

There are no kit cars in that picture... GEN-U-INE Cobra

I got my picture taken next to the #9 Shelby Daytona that weekend. I was starstruck.

Wow, I wouldve cut my left arm off to see them.
Great shots you lucky *******.
The closest I have come to an originalis the FFR Open Houses, very cool but nothing like an original.

The car show AND the track time/racing is why Vintage racing is best car show and car event you could ever attend and actually participating is totally addicting. Autocross is fun but there nothing like wheel to wheel road racing.

The best part is that I could actually run over the $7MM Daytona in an on-track accident and all I'd have to say is "Man I'm Sorry"!!!!!

My ultimate cobra is an FIA 289 model. You can have the big blocks. I'll take an FIA small block any day.
