Default A Ford Fairmont XY with a Cobra Motor

Hi guy's
I buy a motoring magazine that comes out every few months.
I have 103 issues but missed out on the first ever issue about 10 years ago.
Some of you may have already read this story and know what i am talking about.

In September 1970 Wright Ford got the ok to distribution for Shelby American and ford owners could buy all these hot bits for there cars.
What happened is Wright Ford sold a XY Fairmont GS with a Shelby optioned.

The second owner is putting the car up for sale but hasn't given a price.

So it’s just a modified stock engine with some shelby parts on it? That doesn’t make it anything special imo. It didn’t come from the factory that way, so it’s really no different from any other modified clevo powered xy.
