Saw this one in real life when I was visiting the Carroll Shelby Museum in Boulder Colorado

Shelby Museum (http://www.shelbyamericancollection.org/index.html)

They have a lot of very significant models there, many of them privately owned and leant to the museum to show to the public.

its only $5 admission and I thought the Experience was worth significantly more

The second Super Snake, CSX 3303, was sold to actor/comedian Bill Cosby in 1968. Shelby networked the Hollywood crowd as well as anyone, and chided the comic for his addiction to foreign sports cars. Cosby finally succumbed to the Texan's needling and purchased the second SS. If there was a love affair with the car, it didn't last long, as Cosby returned it within a month. The story goes that the car scared the daylights out of him, but generated good material for his nightclub routine.
