    Well, I'm fortunate to have a chemical engineering background, one of the things I enjoy most is turning beer, wine, Scotch and margaritas into urine.

    Translation of text :thumb: :thumb:
    That is surely one of the most unusual cars, which were ever acted with Ebay, although it did not have the Pope as previous owner... This car is a genuine rare piece. Original AC Shelby Cobras drive only completely few world-wide, into Germany perhaps to 2 or 3. All photos also the press illustration show my vehicle, which stands here to the sales. These AC Cobra 427 is no replication, but an original vehicle from the year 1966 with the S/N: CSX3293 and the authentic registration in the Carroll Shelby Cobra Owner's Guide. The vehicle is perfectly originals and by me many years was preserved and maintained! Technically and optically the vehicle is in a really good and drivingefficient condition, surely one the best, from those, which still drive world-wide! The car was completely restored 1989 and waited then permament in my order by a framework place. The car has a German permission with "H"-marking for "history". The vehicle with legendary 7 litres 427 Fords Side Oiler engine, that is equipped alone already priceless is and an enormous force development does not possess... not to talk about the sound, which comes not filtered from that the Side Pipes and each Harley degradiert to the mofa: -). And the performance lets Ferrari and Porsche look old even... As price reference I would like to still add that a same Cobra was auctioneered 427 forwards approximately 6 months with Christie's for converted 450,000.00 euro. Inspection in bath Homburg for serious and respectable Bieter possible, questions gladly under 0173-6753886. Sales of private under exclusion of warranty, guarantee, return and conversion. Term of payment is LZB cheque or cash payment during collection

    Re: 289 For Sale

    At least the 289 has got all its parts; the German 427 is missing its wipers, and all the pics appear to have been photo shopped? Its a bit subjective, but the 289 shown in the us ebay ad appears more, how can I say, authentic? No, more legitimate, couldnt say why.
    But really, would you buy either using buy it now on ebay?? Ridiculous
    Regards Steve

    I know there is a Betty Ford Clinic; is there a Betty Cobra Clinic.?

    At least, for me now, clear is the descriptive wording meaning. A powerful elbow may you have.
    It's official! British weather has been declared Muslim.
    It's partly Sunni but mostly Shi'ite.
