I know where there is a all original unrestored 289 Cobra here in Phx. It sat in yard near side of road near my old house. Windshield frame was removed so everyone thought it was just a MG or similar. Last I knew it remained untouched and is still driveable.

You guys need to make a video celebrating the life of Mickey Thompson.March 21st was the 20th (I think) anniversary of he and his wife's murder. :-(Plus I never knew somebody was convicted in the case.

Please post an extended version of this video. Could watch this for hours. I'm a Chevy guy thru and thru, but I've always loved the Cobras.

He needs to share the love lol😂😂

Great episode! Lynn is such a great, honest, and sincere person. He has been "into" Cobras since they were new. That garage is a magical place, better than many museums. He isn't afraid to drive them and race them. Having grown up a few blocks away from him my ears always knew when he was out driving one of them!

If I lived close to him I would be over there all the time. Lol

WOW, Lynn - you are the man. This is unbelievable, I am in awe of your collection, your knowledge and patience to assemble these great cars. Tom, you MUST give us part two with Lynn and his cars - PLEASE.

This guy new the A/C , CSX Cobras were diamonds in the rough a long time ago. He was smart,kept his mouth shut and anything Shelby was something he'd buy. Just a smart and very cool dude. He deserves all the stuff he has.

This is one of the coolest guys I've seen on here yet, able to appreciate that we don't live in a perfect world and not striving for perfection, just enjoying his cars and how they are.

A whole lot of history in that garage.

So glad the dirt bag was saved. Thank you sir

Now this is a enthusiast collector. Look at his garage. Quality all the way.

My jaw was literally on the floor the whole time. The coolest collection I have ever seen in my life. This guy gets it.

That blue Cobra is the perfect Cobra. Drive it anywhere. Take it to the supermarket. Take it to the show, 'go ahead, put your coffee cup and burger on the hood :)

My thoughts exactly.

Lynn Park is one of my heroes....

I believe that is my favorite "collector" car video ever. This is about as much fun as you can have watching and you can tell Tom is having the time of his life listening to this story and visiting this garage..awesome !

Woah so many cobras, truly amazing

Finally, an owner that knows what he’s doing.

Tom, you gave us enough video just to “whet our appetites”. Ten minutes is not enough time with this man and his collection. You could of spent ten minutes per car with this man and his stories and another ten minutes of him talking about the memorabilia hanging on his garage walls. After all, these are Cobras and this man was truly interesting with a great collection.

Wow another extremely nice and humble man with a multi-million dollar collection.But PLEASE Tom make LONGER videos!!!!

Tom’s Garage is EPIC. It looks like one of those “magazine holy grail” type of photos. His place should be a museum or at least a place where you can go, hang out and drink a coffee or a beer and just look at all the eye candy. His collection should never be broken apart. That is utter coolness. I only wish he lived closer to me!

Unbelievable. I would do just about anything to be able to be a custodian of just one of these beauties. History baby.

This video should be 3 hours long :)

Yep, 'cause you gotta' know each one of his cars has a good story behind it!

This....Roadkill Garage and Jay Leno's Garage....it's all I watch as far as car shows go. The rest I can't get through more than about 30 seconds.

I wish this video was longer this guy knows Cobras so would make a interesting video to explore some of his other stories.

Awesome. What a cool dude.

It’s truly THE garage of the ages. Lynn let my son Max and I drive this car. Truly a special day

Geez. The early AC Cobras were so famous! If I had the money, I would surely have one, yes sir. They fascinated me from the get-go, but I’ve never made enough to get behind having one. Oh, well.

Every time I watch this show, it just gets better and better! Amazing!!

Every classic car needs an owner-caretaker like this guy.

Beautiful Collection. Really nice that this enthusiast give us the opportunity to see his wonderful garage and Collection!

Best bar find episode yet and I love them all.

That repro cobra is absolutely fantastic . All the charm and character of a well worn original but totally usable every day. That man has a fantastic philosophy and a good eye .

Wow that is a great place to hang out. Ten minutes was not long enough. I really love this show. Thanks for taking us along.

Would love to hang out with Mr. Park and listen to his car stories all day.

Been there for research and a few parts; unforgettable!

This is the 3rd time I have viewed this video! I love every second of it! It’s like being a fly on the wall! Very honest! Thanks 👍🇦🇺

I've been there ,and all I can say is what an awesome man with an awesome collection of cars and memorabilia!!! An experience I will never forget!!

I could listen to this guy talk all day

Amazing cars and stories. Thanks for preserving them!

I love the Michael Goodwin connection to the race car, a little creepy but a lot of people don't know that he was a former business partner of Mickey Thompson and was convicted of having Mickey and his wife murdered on March 16, 1988 almost exactly 30 years ago.

I was told quite a bit about that story by Ed Justice Jr. who knew those people and details I had not heard. I wondered what happened to the murderers...often those guys eventually say something to someone and it gets around. They may have been from another country and left right away. Ed thinks they got "offed" themselves.

This is such a great show! I saw Tom at the Bullitt Mustang preview in Amelia Island. He was talking to a few people and I wish I would have stuck around longer to say hello and give him kudos for a great show. Thanks Tom and thank you Hagerty for the videos and a GREAT Bullitt Preview. Top Notch!!!

It just amazes me that 1 man can collect so many amazing cars

Classic car guy ,so enjoyable .

I like what the Delaware Destroyer mentioned. It would be valuable to know what sacrifices the collectors made to fuel such collections.

One of the best... Fun guy to listen to

That's an awesome collection!

Great show as always.

...just love the blue 'barn find', awesome job !

Unbelievable collection. Awesome!

Hey Barn Find Hunter and Hagerty. I am loving the series. Can I say how refreshing it is to have a show in which 'reality' is actually reailty? The more I watch this series, the more I wish it does not end. For a long time I thought that all good barn finds have been discovered. For a while I have thought that, all the barn finds left are the classic 40's to 50's cars. Sadly, where I live, finding the cars that I would like to own and restore one day are definitely not here (Australia). My favourite cars are the 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429 and as shown in this video, the 289 Cobra. There is something special about cars that I do not think some people get. Whether it be the lines, the engine or the sound of the engine. Don't get me wrong, electric cars are good but the fake engine noise is where it gets me and it makes me sad to think that in a generation or two, people in the future may not be able to experience something as simple as the vibration the engine makes when you turn the key in the ignition. So thank you guys for this series and for keeping people's love for cars alive :). Out of interest, how did it cost to actually build the blue 289 Cobra from the mish-mash of parts (just so this 23 year old can start already planning)?

Ohh MYYYY ........thats unbeleivable ! what a collection - Great finds .

Great episode! Thank you for sharing your story!

Goosebumps ❤ This is what Cobra heaven looks like ❤ INCREDIBLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

absolutely amazing, another great video, almost as amazing as the last, can't wait for another cobra video, have learned so much about cobras.

Wow thats Cobra heaven

Great story, thanks for sharing.

I wish this video was longer. Very interesting stories and collection.

The ex-Fred Offenhauser Cobra...SWEEET! Thanks, Lynn!

Thanks so much for sharing this!

Awesome episode, loved every second!

The re-bodied car he made himself is my favorite. I'd want that before one that was in perfect shape.

Wow.....a garage FULL of Cobras....great vid....thank you

So cool... The right way to keep em' !

Remember Lynns' own words: " the Cobra, does EVERYTHING.....BETTER, than any other car on the road.... "

Great video and an amazing collection. I came across your channel by accident but you've got yourselves a subscriber :)

I could listen to this guy talk for hours.

What great find! Interesting to watch.

Holy Crap!! Talk about Cobra’s...wow!!

Anticipating the next episode

Thats an awesome collection

The Cobra is definitely one of the best British cars of the 1960s, and they made lots and lots of cars back then too! Along with the Jaguar E-type, Aston Martin DB5, more from Rolls-Royce and Bentley and no end of amazing manufacturers. Great Britain will never make the amount of great cars they used to...

I like this guy, and anyone who drives their cars

This guy rules!

I watch all your episodes!

Lynn is the man!

I love theses videos. I wish they were longer and more frequent, but I'll gladly take what you give me lol.

That is one cool cat. Keep these episodes coming!

Really cool. I like that they are grubby and a little tattered.

I think ive found heaven ive never seen so many cobras in the same place

Nice video as usual. I was expecting to see Tom at the piston power show in Cleveland this year.

I was a full service gas station attendant as a kid and would sweep the floors at the local car genius' shop after work. He was a guy that built exhausts and people would come from all over just to have headers done. I couldn't believe the cars I had a hand in that would be on the covers of magazines a couple months later. One of them was the polished CSX continuation aluminum bodied car, but this makes my head hurt in a good way to know that they are out there. As a person that landed at LAX and found the Peterson Museum with a $3 Metro Pass in under 24 hours? I'm picking up what you are putting down.

Cars with a story ...

👍🏻👍🏻 Love it keep them cool videos coming

Great video again!!!!

Why Is This Series Not On Velocity Yet?? A True, Likeable Car Guy With Amazing Stories!! The Cobras Are Amazing!! I Swore The Blue One Was Also An Original!! Haha!!

Wow 😮 love it! I am out to get one. I do like the color of the 98 alot.

Oh my God ! How many Cobras does this gentleman owns ?? Good Lord ! I have no interest in the 427s but a 289 !! Oh my. Say, Tom, do you still have THE 289 that you brought back East with our friend Peter Egan years ago ? One epic road trip I read about in Road&Track in awe !

Cool as always!

Thank you for being born!

Cobra are awesome

Great Cobras!

I liked this video so much. I think this guy is a gem. A++++

Damn, now I want a patinated aluminum bodied Kirkham! $$$$$$$$$$$

Ahhhhhhhh ...... Tom that was way too short! Haha

amazing

Awesome thanks

Cobra haven. fantastic!

Now I know where all the Cobras are. This is really not fair !

Lynn parks is one cool guy.. love his dragon snake roaster. He Buddy with Mike mc cluskeys in torrance c.a

Nice! I would have loved to find one of those... closest I ever came was finding a wretched one in a junkyard.. too far gone, but I got the engine and trans out of it... 427 side oiler.. and stuck it into a 66 f100... lol but I did find a “68” Chevy back in 84... went to look at it, got into the old lady’s barn, and I couldn’t believe what I’d found!it was a corvette, I drained covered and on blocks... the lady said her son bought it brand new and got sent to Nam, and got killed... ... she asked for 50 bucks... I gave her 500...it had around 1200 miles on it

I would love to spend a day with those cars to study them and see how they were made

Marvel mystery oil really is awesome stuff. I use it regularly in my oil and gas. Won't do an oil change without it.
