I have had this video in my archives for 18 years, and did not plan to share it because of the atrocious SD quality. However, I observed recently on social media that people are still talking about the car, and "misinformation" (to borrow a horrible word I hear about every 15 seconds on TV) is really comedic and sad - such as one person seeing it destroyed in the Fast & Furious movie franchise - so I decided the right thing to do is post this creation video, hosted by Jason Priestly, and to share the truth with everyone who watches it; the truth that there was, and is, only one 2004 Cobra Concept car, propelled by one of four 392 c.i. V-10 engines. (Interesting to me is that my daughter's 2018 Dodge Durango SRT with 392 c.i. V-8 - code named "Apache" - has a strong-feeling 480 hp and sub-five second 0-60 MPH, while the Daisy Cobra V-10 of the same size produces 605 hp, projected to enable a sub-3.7 second 0-60.) I have never owned a Ford product, but Ford somehow is able to produce an exhaust sound that is heavenly to my ears. I am amazed that they were able to produce that same burbling sound with a V-10, in contrast to the sound a Viper or Lamborghini, e.g., makes, which does nothing for me.

Chris Theodore, who can be seen in this video at 18:55, with his name in the credits at 44:12, placed the winning bid of $825,000 for the Shelby Cobra Concept at a GAA Classic Cars auction in Greensboro, North Carolina, in 2017. After killing the plan to mass produce the Daisy Cobra due to economic downturn, Ford had rendered the car undriveable rather than doom it to the crushing fate of many concepts, but Theodore used his resources to restore it. In order to ensure the continuing care that the car deserves, as well as get out from under the mortgage incurred to buy the car, Theodore sold it August 14, 2021 through the Mecum Auction in Monterey CA for $2.64 million.
