1967 King Cobra #T10-003

[Gen 6 Mach1]

Hi all I just thought I would post rare Race Car , I was at a Car Show yesterday at Martin Auto Museum in Phoenix Az. Mr Martin is gracious enough to open his Museum about 6 times a year and hold Car Shows with free entry to his Museum, he has a huge parking lot to accommodate about 200 cars , with plenty of parking for spectators. Mr Martin's collection of a wide variety from early 1900s to current. Every few months he rotates his cars , so there is always a couple dozen new cars at the Museum. I asked him how many cars he has , and he just smiles. The Museum has 160 to 170 on display, and a warehouse full to rotate thru.
The King Cobra wasn't there a few months ago, so it caught my eye . If you Google Martin Auto Museum Phoenix Information and Utube videos will take you for a tour .

I will be in Scottsdale next week, definitely putting this on the agenda.

Question, you said he opens the museum 6 times a year, or he hosts a car show with free entry to his museum 6 times a year? The website says it's open to the public year round.

Also, while you are in the area, check out the Penske Racing Museum. It's tiny, all of 10 minutes if you don't read or stare at the cars, but if you like picking apart cars, you can easily spend an hour or more there. AND....it's in the middle of all the exotic dealerships, and there is always multiple GT3RS for sale, along with Ferrari, Maserati, Lambo, you name in all in walking distance.

If anyone gets the chance, the Shelby Museum in Boulder Colorado is worth the trip.
It's open to the public on Saturdays. During the week by appointment only. It's not just the original Daytona Coupe and first EVER Cobra. Nor is it ALL THREE of the GT40's from 1966 LeMans.
Within and behind everything, behind cars, hanging off the walls, are parts and memorabilia that you will never, ever see anywhere else. The Ken Miles display gave me chills.

Correct open to public year round , hosts about 6 car shows a year with free entry for all I believe.
Great it's a good couple hour or so walk thru . Enjoy TC
