Yep, last auction (that ended at 42k or so) the seller emailed me with the $125k figure. I laughed pretty hard at that but not as good as I just did with the $200k....I smell a rat!

I don't think it smells at all! Kryta knows value when he see's it.They don't build Oldsmobiles anymore do they?
I heard that he's hoarding 442's!

really!

FYI, my 71 W30:

Is for sale for just $400,000.

No, wait, I can't sell it. But if the Kryta boys are starting a 71 W30 stampede I won't be upset

Mario, did you get those Judge pics I sent?

-------Colin,,,Sorry to go a bit off-topic, but did that Cammer-Cobra have any Ft.Lauderdale history??? There was a converted Cammer in Ft.Lauderdale back in the early 70s.It was a dark color, maybe BRG back then. When it ran it really had some cojones, but the owner was always having small problems with it. Car is gorgeous by the way!!!!...........Bill S

I better buy a 442 quick. Still love them and the prices are sure to come on strong. There's a very nice X code '72 Hurst Olds here in town.

Hmmmmm....high bidder is a Kryta from Detroit and the underbidder is a Kryta from Detroit??? Remember the HMM magazine when the one brother was dressed up as Dr. Olds? Underbidder "Dr. Olds"? Bid jumps from the 30k range to 100k, then the next bid is 200k? Last auction it ended in the 40's? Yeah, the market moves fast, but not THIS fast!

Disclaimer: I could be COMPLETELY wrong on this, but I am still going to say I smell a rat. No offense.

Hi Bill,
Nope, not the same car. My car had the engine installed a little later - and was in Colorado all through the 70's. It was originally blue, then painted black around 1970 as far as I can tell. Later painted again by Bill Murray, then Mike McCluskey, two Cobra "heavies".

I met a guy in Monterey who saw the car on a dyno in the mid-80's, said at 580HP (rwhp) the tires started coming apart and hitting the body so they backed off. He is the guy that eventually bought it and sold it at B-J for $250k... a world record at the time.

Every Cobra has a good story, don't they?

Colin
