Default Re: Original paint '66 427 Cobra @ show today

----Its possible, Des. If the license plate holes are consistent with the 6 screws in the plate then I would say no as there were only US plate style holes in the trunk of the car we brought back from England. As well as I can remember that, I cant seem to remember weather the car had starburst style wheels or not, but it probably would have. Can someone educate me on wide hip Cobras? The Cobra Des has pictured appears to be normal but 3340 pictured earlier is a wide hip car, and 3360 had normal rear flares, I think....Bill S

As far as the &quot;Street Chassis&quot; 427 Cobras go, according to the Cobra Registry the running changes included the following:

Regarding the rear flares:
- 3101-3124 had wide hips
- 3125-3158 had narrow hips
- 3159-3360 went back to wide hips

Regarding the oil cooler scoop:
- 3101-3300 had the oil cooler scoop
- 3301-3360 did not have the scoop

About taillights:
- 3101-3200 had rectangular taillights
- 3201-3360 had round taillights

And for motors:
- 3101-3200 came with 427 motors
- 3201-3305 came with 428s
- 3306-3360 went back to 427s
