First time driver in a old shelby cobra

Lady gets to drive a old cobra that WAS nice. To much power for her.

Sure it was not a Factory Five, or a Superformance?

If It Had To Much Power For Her She Should Have Called For A Tow.

Thanks! A few clicks away from that video on that site is a old PSA called "Signal 30" from 1959. I just spent a half hour watching it and I think Ill stick with the speed limit from now on. It shows car accidents due to speeding and stupidity where they actually film the dead bloodied driver being pulled from the wreck.
I felt queezy after watching it.

I believe if that were my car, they would have pronouced her dead at the scene...

:lol:

Superformance car. Check out the splintered glass on the nose.

They showed us something like that in Driver's Ed, though I think the video was probably from the early 80's. Definitely heavy on footage of the aftermath and of the dead drivers, or pieces thereof. A couple people had to leave the room.

I'm sure they can't show things like that anymore, it would be too shocking for today's "kinder, gentler" education system. (I say that, and yet I went through in '95...not like it was THAT long ago but things have changed...) Shame, really. It was effective!

Not true for at least my school, they showed us a video of a woman who's face turned into a hamburger after a drunk driving accident :eek:


Im pretty sure thats a kit car, its not a genuine 60's shelby and im glad it wasnt. I'd rather see a kit car get wrecked that a rare car.
