Superformance Shelby Cobra Coupe
Woodsy launches his Cobra Coupe at the 2006 London
Ohio Cobra Car Show.
Drivers reached top speeds of 105 mph in an
eighth/mile run down Main Street
as part of the police-sanctioned charity
fund-raiser. Let's do it again!
Woodsy, Superformance engine installer, dreamed of driving a Cobra
ever since he saw the Coupe race as a kid.
What a treat to actually meet
Peter Brock, designer
of the original
aerodynamic Cobra Coupe that broke speed records in 1965.
Peter Brock and Woodsy grin ear-to-ear before heading
out in their Superformance
Daytona Cobra Coupes through
the wide-open country near Woodsy's Gearhead City.
Brock re-engineered his original race car with modern suspension
for improved handling. Under his direction, Superformance added
creature comforts including enough head leg room for guys over
6 feet tall plus weather-tight roll-up windows.
Woodsy's driven about 4,600 miles -- just enough to shake
any
bugs out of this early production car Superformance C037
We love how much fun it is on the open road. It grips the road
on straight-aways and hugs the curves. Plus, it is so aerodynamic
we get 20 mpg in cool comfort thanks to the factory-installed
air conditioning.

Order your Cobra built
to spec. Woodsy built
C049 for a client to race in
the One Lap of America. Check out race updates, including Jack Roush's

display at Superformance
USA.

Hot Rod Bling
Woodsy admires gauge surrounds and trim 'hot rod jewelry'
designed & hand-crafted by Andrea and Bruce Carnahan
of Motorhead Jewelry.
Admit it. Do you talk about your car as she?
Talk real sweet as you polish her? Give her a pet name?
Well give her some bling.
Dress her up with "jewelry".
