vamach1 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 That Cobra book is pretty pricey now. i bought one when Pete Brock was selling them at a Shelby convention in the 90's. $100 and he signed it for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randx0 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Little spendy... Slightly understated . Great Job on the cab so far. This has to be my favorite transporter ever. I'll have to look for it but I think Motor Trend classics did a write up on the restoration of the truck . If you can find them for a decent price any Dave Friedman book is worth it , his pictures are amazing . I can't wait to see more progress !

Brizio Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 Call Harold directly at HRM, (301)604-8591. I called last week about his Testa Rossa engine kit and he had it out to me a few days. One of the HRM reseller that I contact, seems that he will able to make me have the parts in a short time. That Cobra book is pretty pricey now. i bought one when Pete Brock was selling them at a Shelby convention in the 90's. $100 and he signed it for me. $100, is a lot of money, but still a good price compared to the $1200t hat they ask now.

I heard about the write up, but I couldn't find it. But I was able to find a lot of information about the truck. Thank you for the tip about the book, I will check it out.

Brizio Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 (edited) Shelbys Photographer. I bought the book, beautiful photos! The car carrier has a lot of history! Excited to see what you do with it! Yes, I'm glad they restored it. Some small progress on the rear axle. Still a lot to do...
