Market commentary

This is a very good example of the small-block Cobra, sold for $781,000 at Russo and Steele in Monterey last August for $781,000. The all-in price here is a considerable bump over what it brought just a few months ago and in any event is a strong price for a sound, but far from show quality, 289 Cobra.
