I took these photos at the Gosford Classic Car Museum in Sydney, Australia. The museum has over 450 cars with a combined value of over $70 million under one roof.

This is the Australian built 1978 Ford Cobra, only 400 of these cars were built by Ford specifically for the Bathurst 1000 race, this particular car is number 397. The first 200 cars had a 351 cu in or 5.8 lt Cleveland V8 while the other 200 have the 302 cu in or 4.9L lt Cleveland V8. This particular car has the 302 V8.

I hope you like my post and thanks for the visit.
