So looks like Ed is somewhere in Florida (as of 2017?)...Found a pic of him with a rig..The guy had some great taste in cars...didn't know he restored the Dragon Snake Cobra...cool.

I had the Camaro VIN written down somewhere...it has been over 20 years though..

I saw the 427 dragon snake cobra in a shop in Cincinnati. I don't know who owned it at the time but it was there for some mechanical work. I want to say it was mid 1990's?? Was in unrestored condition at that time and running, they were doing some tuning on the chassis dyno with it. I've read there was only one of those built. The others were 289's.

I don't remember much about the one I saw. I was actually at the shop attending to my own stuff and didn't get to pay as much attention to the cobra as I would have liked. I don't even remember the name of the shop anymore.

They just happened to have it on the chassis dyno when I stopped in.
I remember the cobra was a dark red color, and had a hard top on it which I thought was odd at the time, slicks on the back and skinnies up front. Had some verbiage on the doors and was a 427. I do recall they were disappointed with the dyno numbers. It had the appearance of just being pulled out of long time storage. I was told it was an original 427 Dragonsnake cobra.

At that time period I was more familiar with them in SCCA and to see one back then originally setup for the dragstrip was odd to me.

I think that CSX2093 is a 289 car?
