Ford's response to the Plymouth Road Runner: 1969 Cobra. Two different body styles with the sportsroof being less expensive: $3181 vs $3206. Standard bench seat, 4 speed and 3.25 rear. and 10" drum brakes. The 428 (big car) engine was standard with the Cobra Jet Ram Air an extra $133.44. F70x14 WSW belted tires were standard with RWL and additional $13 (mandatory with the CJ engine option). If you wanted an auto, add another $37. A/C was not available with the 428/428 CJ and a 4 speed.
The Cobra was a one year only muscle car and sales were not that good: Cobra 2-door hardtop - 3,786, Cobra 2-door sportsroof - 11,099. 1969 was the pinnacle for the amount of muscle car models available. The Cobra got lost in the pack.
