Description

The Cobra was built from August 1978, It was designed by Edsel Ford II to move the last of the Hardtop shells before the new XD arrived. They featured Bright Blue stripes on a white car with Cobra decals and a numbered plaque on the glove box lid. (1 to 400) the 1st 200 got 351 Cleveland, and the 2nd 200; 302 Cleveland. They all got 4 wheel disc brakes, LSD and 15 in Globe wheels. No 2 to 31 were the Bathurst models identified with the rear facing bonnet scoop and also got twin thermo fans, and engine oil cooler.

The XC was well remembered for the famous 1, 2 win at the Bathurst Hardie Ferodo 1000 (Allan Moffat and Jackie Icyx crossed the line just ahead of Colin Bond and Alan Hamilton)
