The Cobra was a single seat speedster with a shark type dorsal fin and Corvette automotive style windscreen. A marriage of fiberglass and mahogany that only lasted one year, 1955; she marked the beginning of the end for wooden Chris-Crafts. Built in Algonac, Michigan a total of 108 were made. About half of those were 18 footers, the others 21 foot. Power was supplied by a 158-hp six or if you purchased the 21 foot model you could chose a 200-hp Chrysler Hemi or 285-hp Cadillac V-8. The artwork seen here is based on the Cobra owned by Terry Fiest,it was the second 18 footer produced by Chris-Craft.
