The thing was on a flatbed, couldn't give chase. Looked to be in a sorry state as well. Faded metallic blue one. Been decades since I'd seen one but the shape is unmistakeable.
 
Very cool. I love the shape of these things......they are the bee's knees.

If I had scads of cash I'd try to build one into a vintage racer.

I saw this one at our local "cruise night" restaurant in 2012.

I think this is the one, Steve. I try to make it to RA every year.

I've got one of the LaDawri sales brochures in my toolbox. The Ol' Fella sent for it but never went for one of the models illustrated in it. .

Doc, if you ever felt like scanning that.... I would love to see it.
 
Spotted--A Cheetah! I thought it was a joke, think about the animals markings, then I read the post, don't think I have seen the mechanical kind in the flesh, I had the slot car variety too. Was even more of a motor on wheels than the Cobra.
