"Interviewing Tony Conover, who found and restored the King Cobra, above, and checking the Shelby Club (SAAC) Registry revealed that in the early-1970s, Clem Hoppe's family had sold the Cobra to Carl Mentz of Reamstown, PA for approximately $6,000. A 428 engine powered it at the time. Mentz, a Cobra enthusiast, bought it cheap knowing that it required a full restoration. It was still a bargain." I think Carl Mentz was also drag racing enthusiast
