    Hello cobra fans ! just a quick reminder that cobra info should be sent into the club,they work for years collecting info and then work even harder to create an excellent book.Buy it...or watch it go out of print!!

    Last I was told by Rick, they are still putting the First Book together and it has yet to go to the Printers. They are thinking it will be 3 Books.

    Let's see; Book one, Cobra's and probably GT 40's from the 60's.
    Book two, Shelby Mustangs, Shelby built Trans Ams, Boss 302 race cars from the 60's and 1970.

    Book three: every Continuation, tribute, elanor, johnny-come-lately, and also everything built after, what, 1971? Oh, plus the nwe GT's and the new Shelbys??

    Where did the 50,000 copies # come from? I must have missed that when I looked the other day.
    I would think 5000 would be more than they could sell.
    <but would be a cool million @ 200 each>:guitar:

    5000 copies would seem a reasonable first printing, as that is about the number of SAAC members at any one time. I would think a fair percentage
    of SAAC members will purchase the new Registery. Those that don't, probably
    couldn't care less about all the "nity grity" that it will contain. That should
    make copies available from places like Tony Branda for those who are not in SAAC, but wish to have one. As to it's availability; Who knows? I guess we will just wait it out.
