All three photos are from the August 1968 National at Riverside....and the yellow 427 Cobra (3020) is Dave Dralle's as Silverton-Ford had noted.

I agree with the ID of the wrecked Cobra as being CSX 3052. I have put remarkably similar, but different, photos of the wrecked car in the online Registry.

Who's "driving" it now? I'm sure that was "restoreable"?

It was restored the smart way: they bought a used 427 Cobra and used it as the basis for rebuilding the wrecked 3052. And the amalgamation is owned today by the same owner who was lucky to survive the crash in '68.

"Amalgamation? "

You weren't satisfied with coining "air car"? Now it's an "amalgamation"? OK. Cool.  8)

Some where some one is driving their collector car for the last time but they don't know it . Drive your car every time like it could be the last memory of it .
