289/271hp, 4-sped, painted wire wheels, Michelin XWX tires, woodri, AC steering wheel, original radio, Stewart Warner gauges, wind wings.
Condition
#4 Fair
Has visible flaws to the naked eye. Runs fine, but could use mechanical or cosmetic attention.
Matching numbers. Factory demonstrator through 1964. Shown at Pebble Beach in the preservation class. Recent mechanical attention. Dull but original paint with some forgivable blemishes. The wheels look refinished but have a few dings in them. Unrestored but maintained and cleaned up underneath. Cracking original leather and some scuffs on the dash. A proven preservation Cobra.
Market commentary
The reported high bid reflects a decent premium for that preservation, so it could have sold.
