This well known example of the rare T500 Cobra Mk1 has been featured in numerous publications since its restoration by Don Leeson in the early eighties.
It is finished in gold with chrome plated tank panels, mudguards, fork legs, grab rail and chain-guard. Unlike sister machines in the range the Cobra featured twin instruments mounted above the distinctive horseshoe headlamp finished in the same colour as the rest of the bodywork as are the headlamp brackets and rear shock absorber shrouds. The engine turns over despite the machines period in storage which has resulted in some degradation of the brightwork. Last taxed 1988 the machine is offered with a Swansea V5 and some expired MOT certificates.
