Title: Cobra in the bedroom
Post by: Jam2 on September 04, 2015, 21:18:48
In this article about a 4.5ltr Bentley.  The son of the late owner of the Bentley refers to his dad also having had a dismantled Cobra in his bedroom!  In view of the Bentley, it is not so unlikely!

Stuart, an ACOC member, came to Council meetings from time to time, usually with a newspaper wrapped around some obscure part he had made or acquired.
   
   There's no record of his ownership of a period Cobra.

   Great article and a fine epitaph to Stuart. From memory, the AC was an Aceca which, when restored, was run by Stuart's daughter
