when i was like sixteen i got to ride in a 427 'ac cobra'........
i didn't know the guy so i have have no idea if it was an origanal or a replica .....the guy said it was a real one ,but i didn't know enough to know if he was lying or not........i didn't even know the guy and it was like luck that i got the ride..........it was like in the late eightys and i was walking to work ,i saw this ac cobra sitting outside a mini market ......i stopped to look at it .......well when the guy came out of the store......i told him i liked his car and made a comment as sort of a joke about catching a ride........well he said "hope in".....to my amazment ,he was seriose and we went for a quick little ride.......

he didn't go real fast but he did goose it once.....the thing about snaped my neck .........was a real cool experience i'll never forget.........whether it was an origanal 427 ac cobra probly not.....but i like believing it was .......and who know's maybe it was
