Re: King Cobra
Here's a small photo from a Marty Schorr book on Fords. Joel Rosen is seen running a Weber-carbed 289 Cobra on the Motion dyno. Note forward-braced rollbar common to the 289 cars. (Yes, a few early 427 cars had forward-braced rollbars.)
The caption in the book says: "Motion Performance campaigned a normal Cobra brought up to Dragonsnake specifications by owner-driver Joel Rosen. Car was a consistent East Coast winner, destroying Corvettes on a regular basis."
Note that it says "owner-driver" Joel Rosen.
