Liner Notes
For the past thirteen years, guitarist Bob Margolin has been tearing it up at nightclubs and concert halls around the world. He does so by making '50s-style blues speak to '90s audiences. "I love playing the real old-time blues," Bob says, "because it's the most exciting, honest music I ever heard." To say the least, Bob has acquired his '50s finesse honestly. He learned directly from the great Muddy Waters.
"It was a real honor and a thrill," Margolin recalls, "when MuddyWaters asked me to join his band. For a blues lover like me, that was the opportunity of a lifetime." Bob worked with Muddy for seven years, accompanying him on nine albums, and appearing alongside him in the film
The Last Waltz
. Margolin headed out on his own in 1980, and he's been on the road ever since, appearing with the likes of Etta James, John Lee Hooker, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Johnny Winter.
Down In The Alley
reflects all of Margolin's hard work as a student at Muddy Waters' "old school." It also shows how Bob has carved his own niche as both a searing yet subtle guitarist and a witty, distinctive songwriter.
Margolin grew up in Brookline, Massachusetts, just outside of Boston. In the early '70s he was working there on a six-set-per-night gig with blues guitarist Luther "Georgia Boy" "Snake" Johnson -- a Muddy Waters alumnus who introduced Bob to the man himself. Then in 1973 Bob helped form the Boston Blues Band, a group which often opened the show at Muddy's Boston-area performances. Muddy heard Bob play and was impressed with his dedication to the classic '50s Chicago sound. Shortly thereafter some personnel changes in Muddy's band created the need for a guitarist -- and Bob Margolin was the right man in the right place at the right time."Muddy's drummer, Willie 'Big Eyes' Smith, told me 'welcome to the club,' " Bob remembers, "and that gave me a great feeling. It was more than just a gig and a paycheck, though. It was an opportunity to learn. Muddy didn't want to take the time to actually teach me his sound, but he could see how much I wanted to get it right. So he put me next to him on the bandstand and hoped I would pick it up. He did tell me about his 'delay time,' and 'tone,' and the 'send back,' and not to be 'short-cuttin' on the turn-around.' It was a big mystery at first, and Muddy was not exactly Mr. Sensitive Tact with his criticism, and it did 'hurt like being in love,' as he said it would. But I don't complain, because I love Muddy's blues and I'm blessed with the chance I had to play with him."
Bob's love of vintage Chicago blues doesn't mean that he's a dry, academic revivalist; his hard-driving style is as fun, funky and danceable as they come -- you don't play 200 club dates a year by giving seminars. It's just that Margolin approaches music with an unadorned, "less-is-more" concept. His gutsy guitar style touches on blues, rock, jump and swing and seamlessly unifies them with the "delay-time" rhythm which makes a good blues so sensual. Bob sets the same high standards for his band members -- admonishing drummers, for instance, to keep a strong, simple back-beat and not play "a lot of candy-ass rolls." There's good reason for such vigilance, since today's Chicago blues is saturated by modern funk. The fancy drum fills and thumb-popping bass lines of this contemporary approach -- effective as they can be in their own right -- might well make Muddy spin in his grave.
But he'd love the rollicking, soulful and personable set that Bob has put together here -- from the exquisite guitar work on
Brown Liquor
to the slide wizardry of the title track, the lyrical fun of
Boston Driving Blues
, and the ferocious band groove on
Boogie At Midnight
. "This album," Bob concludes, "is a combination of Muddy's legacy, some personal favorites, and my own songs. All the songs are blues, in many different shades. I recorded them with some of my old friends, and every story is true."

About "Never Despair" by bsweber
Never Despair
Design by bsweber
"If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being hated, don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise.
If you can dream—and not make dreams your master; If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two imposters just the same
If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breath a word about your loss.
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And—which is more—you'll be a Man, my son!"
--Rudyard Kipling

The MOD is hardly going to shoot down their own craft. [/quote] These exact same objects have been witnessed and reported over Lake Erie back into the 1900's.....These are not our craft....Sorry. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scientific American, New Series, Volume 3, Issue 8 (Aug 18, 1860) OPTICAL ILLUSION ON LAKE ERIE.--The Cleveland, Ohio, Herald says that a tremendous thunder shower passed over that city on the night of the 3d inst., and adds :-- "Between three and four o'clock next morning the appearance of a vessel on fire was seen far out on the lake. Some persons thought they could distinguish the sails. During a heavy gust of wind the light disappeared. Such appearances are not unfrequent on the lake, and the more experienced men along the dock think there has been no vessel burnt." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "A Curious Phenomenon on Lake Erie," Brooklyn Eagle, Thursday, December 12, 1867 A Mystery on the Lakes--The Wizard Lights--A Curious Phenomenon on Lake Erie I notice in the Dispatch, of the 11th inst.*, the following paragraph:-- "The statement that a vessel was seen burning off Erie on Tuesday night, is corroborated by several persons living on the highlands south of the city, who say they saw it." On the Tuesday evening mentioned, Oct. 29th, at about 7 o'clock, my attention was called by one of my family to a bright light on the lake, having very much the appearance of a vessel on fire. Bringing several objects into range, I watched the light forsome time to ascertain whether there was any preceptible [sic] motion. The wind was blowing hard at the time down the lake and a vessel would naturally drift rapidly to leeward, at all events as soon as the propelling power should be interfered with the fire. No motion, however, in any direction was to be discovered, and at once concluded that it was nothing more than the "mysterious light," which for many years past, at longer or shorter intervals, has been seen by the inhabitants at this point on the lake shore. The light has made its appearance generally, if not always, in the fall of the year, and usually in the month of November, and almost always during or immediately after a heavy blow from the southwest. The most brilliant exhibition of the light I have ever seen was during the night of the 24th or 25th, as nearly as I can recollect, of November, 1852. It had been my fortune to witness the burning of the steamer Erie, near Silver Creek, several years before, and the resemblance which this light bore to that of the burning steamer was so strong that I confidently expected the arrival of the boats from the wreck during the night. Others with myself watched the light for perhaps two hours, and with the aid of a good night-glass obtained what seemed to be a very distinct view of the burning vessel. The object appeared to be some 200 or more feet in length upon the water, and about as high above the water as an upper cabin steamer, such as was in use upon the Lake twenty years ago. At times the flames would start up in spires or sheets of light, then away from side to side, and then die away, precisely as would be the case with a large fire exposed to a strong wind; and two or three times there was the appearance of a cloud of sparks, as if some portion of the upper works had fallen into the burning mass below. The sky and water were beautifullly irradiated by the light during its great brilliancy.The light gradually subsided, with occasional flashes until it disappeared altogether. The light of Tuesday evening, although very brilliant for a time, was not nearly so brilliant nor of so long duration as that of 1852. I am told that this light was seen by mariners on the lakes as long as fifty years ago, but I am not aware that it has ever been made the subject of philosophical speculation or investigation, or, in fact, has ever obtained the notoriety of a newspaper paragraph before. The only theory approaching plausibility I have heard is that the shifting of the sands caused by the continued and heavy winds of autumn has opened some crevices or seams in the rock of the lake bottom through which gas escapes, and that this gas, owing to some peculiar condition of the atmosphere with which it comes in contact, becomes luminous, or perhaps ignited, and burning with a positive flame. That there are what are called "gas springs" in the water along this portion of the lake shore is a well-known fact, and that highly inflammable gas in large quantities exist at a comparatively shallow depth on the shore, has been sufficiently proved by the boring of wells at different points, as at Erie, Walnut Creek, and Lock Haven, and by natural springs at Westfield and Fredonia. But whatever the cause, the light is a curious fact, and well worthy the attention of those interested in the investigation of the phenomenon of nature. [/quote]

What is known regarding the "Pulsating Orbs of Light" UFO's showing up worldwide!
The UK Ministry of Defense has revealed regarding these "Pulsating Orbs of Lights" UFO's showing up worldwide right now.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) in the UK Air Defence Region
The Ministry of Defence has released this report in response to a Freedom of Information request and we are pleased to now make it available to a wider audience via the MOD Freedom of Information Publication Scheme. Where indicated information is withheld in accordance with Section 26 (Defence), Section 27 (International Relations) and Section 40 (Personal Information) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

That Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon (UAP or UFO) Exist is indisputable. Credited with the ability to hover, land, take off, accelerate to astonishing velocities and vanish. They can reportedly alter their direction of flight suddenly and clearly can exhibit aerodynamics characteristics well beyond those of any known aircraft or missile - either manned or unmanned.
The Conditions for the initial formation and sustaining of what are apparently buoyant charged masses (of Plasma), which can form, separate, merge, hover, climb, dive, and accelerate are not completely understood.
Dependent on a color's temperature and aerosol density, it may be seen visually, either by it self generated plasma color, by reflected light, or silhouette by light blockage and background contrast.
Occasionally and perhaps exceptionally, it seems a field with, undetermined characteristics can exist between certain charged buoyant objects in loose formation, the intervening space between them forms an area, viewed as a shape, often Triangular, from which the reflection of light does not occur. This is a key finding in the attribution of what have frequently been called black "Craft", often triangular and up to hundreds of feet in length.

Check out this document recently declassified by the UK Ministry Of Defense on Unidentified ]Aerial Phenomenon or UAP's, or as they are called in the US....UFO's
link to www.mod.uk
Some qoutes from the above paper...
"The relevance of Plasma and magnetic fields to UAP(UFO) were an unexpected feature of the study"
In So Advising
- It should be stressed that, despite the recent increase in UAP/UFO events, the probobility of encountering a UAP/UFO remainns very low
- No attempt should be made to out-manoeuvre a UAP/UFO during interception
- At higher altitudes, although the UAP/UFO appear to be benign to civil air-traffic, pilots should be advised to not manoeuvre, other than put the object astern if possible - The UK Ministry of Defence
Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies, a leader in Aerospace research has revealed about these "Pulsating Orbs of Light/plasma UFO's"
A pulsating spherical ball of light. The light appears bluish to a yellow green glow. The light it casts is not extremely bright but will cast light on objects immediately surrounding the orb. Typically there is more than 1 orbs gathered. They have the ability to hover and make no noise. There appears to be no physical shape supporting these orbs. A characteristic feature is that they will pulsate their light intensity for a matter of seconds growing extremely bright, and then fading away to nothing as if the object simply vanished. Apparently these have been witnessed during the day but are more visible at night. Have been seen transforming into other animal shapes and is suspected of having the ability to transmorph into the shape of local living animals. Can affect other electrical objects and knocked out the power to the ranch house. Shift between a visible and invisible state as they pulsate on and off.
These are intelligent and purposeful like in nature. I suspect they are some sort of transportation vehicles for another intelligence or the drones for this intelligence. They have a role of observing. They are unique in that they appear almost curious about any humans they come across. They seem to easily detect your presence, and may be influenced by meditative thoughts/requests. I believe their function is to observe, report, and to transport either consciousness, or actual entities within them, as if some form of vessel. This is the most interactive of all the anomalies on the ranch and will pursue and entertain its viewers.
The flash drones (A pulsating spherical ball of light) tend to take on a more interactive role if the observer is alone. The sensation of being hit by one is described as being hit by a high velocity warm water balloon. The after effects of which immediately evaporate away.
Although speculative, the light may only travel in a light-off configuration. When the light is visible, the object appears stationary, however it disappears, only to reappear in a different location. This postulates that the light may possibly be "phasing" in and out from one location to the next.
Artificial or biological like intelligence. Potentially an animal like intelligence. The light radiated is seen in a 180 degree manner and does not cast light behind.
Duration for sightings 1 to 45 minute

According to Eugene Erlikh, at approximately 6:45pm EST, on Thursday night (April 8, 2010) a private telephone call came into his residence. Eugene answered and the man on the other end assumed to know it was Eugene and called him by name. The man identified himself as a member of Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies. He did give his name and email that is, in fact, linked to the BAASS.ORG domain name. He asked Eugene a number of questions pertaining to the sightings over Lake Erie. The man then demanded Eugene give up the exact coordinates of the location the lights are appearing. When Eugene questioned the man, he stated he knew the lights were not terrestrial or from this planet and there's big money involved in obtaining that technology.
The host of the Radio show then E-mailed this BAASS Investigator and asked, "Hey, why are you guys calling Egene when Mufon already Stated that these are just Airplanes "Case Closed"?"
This is his actual response.
"In Regards to the Lights over Lake Erie I am not absolutely convinced that they are coming from conventional aircraft. As an investigator I must be completly objective with any UFO's reported which has multiple witnesses. BAASS employees are paid professionals, all the investigators are former law enforcement detectives who have a higher level set of skills and experience. MUFON Takes anyone who pays the money and passes the test and works for free. That does not make them a credible source for information for me to except they're conclusions."
- Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies Investigator
The following is the conclusions from over 25 years of research and after Italian SETI scientists got involved with much more highly sophisticated equipment.
The Portal - The Hessdalen Lights Phenomenon
*The phenomenon is identified as a bright flying object with special characteristics making it unique to science."
*The phenomenon is more complex and diverse than expected, indicating more than 1 single kind of phenomenon."
*The phenomenon is sometimes made up of separate units that may depart and fly away.
*The speed varies from still to 8km per second."
*The phenomenon changes course in speeds indicating no mass by physical means.
*The phenomenon seems to be able to take on pieces of plasma or energy from the ground whilst passing by.
*The phenomenon seems to radiate energy due to the light and frequency change of colour.
*Many interesting spectra in the optical and radio frequency range have been detected but more data is needed to draw proper conclusions.
"These scientific data are quite sensational! We are dealing with a real existing phenomenon which can be observed even though this is difficult." - Terje Toftenes, 2009
UFO researcher/advocate Jim Dilettoso perform "spectral analysis" of video imagery of these exact same Orbs of Light UFO's showing up Worldwide right now.
Jim Dilettoso proved these Ball Of Light/Plasma could not have been produced by a man-made source.
Dilettoso determined the amount of red, green and blue in the various video images and constructed histograms of the data, which were then compared to a database of known light sources such as flares, Lanterns, Planets, FAA lights, Etc.
The Balls of light UFO's do not match up to any known "spectral analysis" histograms of any known light sources, that was the conclusion.

I find this information released by the UK ministry Of Defense and Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies that these Orbs of Light can basically take on any physical form they desire, biological or otherwise very interesting!

text: Am wondering if anyone has bought the 9mm conversion barrel from EFK? I did some searching and found some info on swapping to the 357 Sig but not to 9mm. Are there any other changes that would need to be swapped out, other then the mags? I have no desire to permanently alter the gun thought it would be nice to have a gun that is capable of shooting 9mm if the case ever arouse. Thanks...Eric

Awesome video!
Watch it, it is amazing.
If it's an HK I probably want one.
Awesome video!
No Hk, anymore
Very cool video! I could have done without the shitty techno-trance music but still pretty cool.
Yeah the music is crap, but everything else is on point.
That is one of the best handgun videos I have seen on youtube with a HK handgun. The OP advised the origin of the video is HK Oberndof Germany. It really amazes me the amount of testing and extra time HK puts into when testing there handguns and rifles. They truly are the Handgun/Rifle Manufacture that all others are compared to IMO.. Thanks for sharing Navyman!
Fast is fine but accuracy is final. You must learn to be slow in a hurry. ~ Wyatt Earp
Outstanding presentation!
If you watch the video towards the end they advised they are currently testing the HK P30 with a suppressor does this mean we can hope for a HK P30T with threaded barrel in the near future? I would certainly be tempted to buy one.
Indeed. I would buy one right now, even if I wouldn't get it for a year.
Now this is top shelf porn.
Great vid! The Germans love that techno training video music from the late 80s!
There is another youtube where a guy tries the same sand test with his P30 and has less than stellar results. He doesn't tap it off though the way this guy does. Also, there is a cut in the mud video part where they must have removed some more mud.

Canada home sales edge lower in November
By Andrea Hopkins
TORONTO (Reuters) - Sales of existing homes in Canada dipped in November from October as a surge in autumn sales spurred by rising mortgage rates abated, the Canadian Real Estate Association said on Monday.
The industry group for Canadian real estate agents said sales activity was down 0.1 percent last month from October.
While actual sales for November, not seasonally adjusted, rose 5.9 percent from a year earlier, CREA said activity was sharply lower than just two months earlier, when the prospect of rising mortgage rates spurred home buying.
"National sales activity in November stood 3.4 percent below the peak reached in September, providing further evidence that activity in the later summer and early fall was likely boosted by home buyers with pre-approved mortgages at lower than current interest rates jumping into the market before their pre-approvals expired," CREA said.
The prospect of rising mortgage rates typically steals demand from the future, a drop now in evidence.
But economists said they expect some bounce back in activity because bond yields, which set longer-term mortgage rates, have eased, before the overall market manages a soft landing.
"We expect activity to grind higher in the months to come following the recent decline in bond yields that will help to restore a modest amount of affordability relative to the summer," David Tulk, chief Canada macro strategist at TD Securities, said in a research note.
"But taken in conjunction with the accumulated impact of tighter mortgage regulations, higher yields expected over the course of 2014 will limit the upside for the housing market. Instead, we expect that the market is destined for a soft landing and will have less of a role to play in supporting economic growth in a recovery that will become more reliant on exports."

There are muscle cars, and then, there are muscled-up sports cars. The Cobra is considered the consummate 'muscle car'. But, in one move, Carroll Shelby effectively bridged the gap between muscle and sports cars and launched a whole new bread of machine.
During the 1960s, there were two approaches. In Europe, the cars were smaller and more-nimble. The premium was placed on acceleration and handling. In the United States, the cars were bigger and heavier, but quite powerful. The focus was on top-end performance in a straight line. While the muscle car was still the main interest in the United States, more and more people were being attracted to the smaller and lightweight European sports cars. During this time, grand prix racing, as well as, the 24 Hours of Le Mans, were quite popular, even with American audiences.
Carroll Shelby was a racing driver and was very familiar with what it took to have the best car. He had been devastated by the Corvettes during a race. Therefore, set off on a quest to create the best car; one that would completely demoralize its competition.
Shelby wanted a small car that was capable of housing a V-8 engine. Carroll had noticed the shapely lines of AC Cars' chassis and approached them about building a car for his purposes. They agreed. Then, Shelby went engine hunting. Initially, Shelby went to Chevrolet, but they turned him away for fear of competition with its Corvette. Shelby then went to Ford. At that time Ford was becoming interested in the European motor sport scene and understood what having a powerful, lightweight car could mean in competition. Therefore, Ford became very interested in the idea of a powerful, small and lightweight car, especially one that could defeat the Corvette.
Shelby's first 'snakes' were quite good in performance. However, the next couple of generations were no where near what Shelby had planned. Its second-generation machine was affectionately called, 'The Turd' by racing driver Ken Miles. This was because the car was virtually un-drivable due to the transverse leaf spring suspension the car had been designed to utilize.
Shelby had been promised Ford's aluminum-block 390 V-8. This met with some resistance. Therefore, Shelby would have to make due with the heavier 'side-oiler' 427. To be able to house the engine, AC Cars had to redesign their chassis with a wider wheelbase. Though frustrating at the time, this, and the inclusion of a new wishbone and coil spring suspension, proved to be just what was needed. The large engine, with the wider wheelbase, enabled the full potential of the Cobra to be unveiled. The Ford 520 bhp, 427 V-8 engine was purposed to push the square, heavy bricks of Nascar's day around at 170mph. When combined with the much smaller and lighter AC chassis, the power-to-weight ratio that resulted was truly lethal for the competition.
The car was light (500 pounds lighter than the Corvette), it was nimble because of its wider stance, but in addition to all of that, the car was incredibly quick.
In 1963, Cobra earned their first-ever race victory against a field made up of Corvettes, Jaguars, Porsches and Maseratis. Jack Sears and Peter Bolton reportedly hit about 186 mph in tests on England's M1 motorway before the 1964 24 Hours of Le Mans race. The story surrounding this episode, and the many fatalities on the M1, led England to establish national speed limits its highways. According to Sports Car Graphic magazine in 1965, 'Ken Miles took one of the street 427 machines out and did zero to 100 to zero in 13.2 seconds.' Many of Europe's small sports cars had been able to do the same test in under 30 seconds. This was how brutally quick the Cobra was. It had truly bridged the small, lightweight sports cars of Europe with the incredible high-horsepower engines of the United States. This rare combination made the car coveted for competition purposes, but surprisingly, it proved to be unsuccessful for Ford with the general public. Ford and Shelby ceased importing the cars from England in 1967.
The 427 Cobra presented at the RM Auction in 2011 in Scottsdale, AZ was a genuine 427-powered street Cobra. The car had been prepared by Hall Fabrication & Racing, Inc. The car originated from AC Cars in early 1966 and was then purchased by a gentleman from Kokomo, Indiana later that year.
The car appeared at the First Annual Brown County Indiana SAAC meet in 1978. The car was then sent back to England in 1979 as it was purchased by a Martin A. Colvill. Later on, it was purchased and sent to Germany. In 1988, the car was purchased by the 1988 British Touring Car Champion, Frank Sytner. The car eventually returned to the United States some time later.
In 2003, the car ended up making contact with one of the guardrails at the Monterrey Historics. This led the car to go through a no-expense spared restoration, including a bare-metal refinish.
The Cobra comes with a well documented history, including the original invoice from AC to Shelby American, photographs of the body stamp in various locations, as well as receipts from the car's owners throughout its time in Europe.
The restoration the car underwent was quite extensive. It included the brakes, cooling, electrical, suspension, chrome, paintwork and many other parts and components. The car is finished in red, while its interior has been finished in black leather and dark grey.
The car sports the usual AC Cars body styling expected for the 427 Cobra. Two large, round headlights accent either side of the wide-mouth open grille. The hoodline, trailing back from the grille opening is reminiscent of the Maserati or Ferrari grand prix cars of the early 1950s. The extra-wide fenders cover the car's obviously wider wheel base. A small, single-piece windscreen is about the only thing protruding up out of the top of the car. Along the lower portion of the sides of the car run the hallmark, large-diameter exhaust pipes. The interior of the Cobra offered had a wood trimmed steering wheel, complete with the AC badge. The instruments are correct Smiths. Large, shapely rear fenders help conceal the wide rear tires.
The car has a large-capacity fuel tank. The 520 bhp, 427 V-8 engine sports four Weber carburetors and aluminum heads. Stopping power comes from four aluminum-caliper disc brakes. It has a Ford Top-loader four-speed manual transmission, an independent front suspension comprised of unequal-length upper and lower wishbones with coil springs and telescopic dampers and a similar rear suspension with additional lower trailing links. Headed to auction, this Shelby Cobra was estimated to fetch between $650-$750,000.
The Cobra offered this year is one of just a little over 300 street-specified Cobras ever built. Chassis CSX3259 is truly a special car. Its rarity comes from what it represents. And what it represents is the focus of uniting two points of view. It is that rare amalgamation of a small, lightweight and nimble sports car chassis that would be at home on the twisty road tracks of Europe and an incredibly powerful American muscle car meant to take the car between point A and B in the fastest possible time.

On November 18th of 1965 CSX-3181 was invoiced to Shelby America and shipped to Los Angeles. Work Order Number 18088 was opened in January of 1966 and finished in March. It was then sent to Archway Motors Inc. in Baltimore, Maryland for $6,398. In March of 1966 the Cobra 427 was sold to David Pyles of Marlow Heights, Maryland. After two-hundred miles of driving, it was returned as it was in need of major engine repairs. The crankshaft and bearings had been scored and the engine required a rebuilt. This task was undertaken by Archway Motors under warranty. The car then passed through a number of owners before ending up with an unknown owner who crashed CSX 3181. The crash ejected him from the car as the vehicle went into a lake.
Andre Fiejo of Michigan was the vehicles next owner. It then passed to Gregory Lonberger of Lombard, Illinois. Mr. Lonberger was mechanically inclined and performed a restoration on the vehicle bringing it back to its glory days.
In 1989 the vehicle was sold for $425,000 by George Stauffer. It was later resold to David Livingston of Seattle, Washington who displayed it at the SAAC-17 in Portland, Oregon in July of 1992.
At the 2006 RM Auction in Monterey, Ca CSX-3181 was offered for sale. It was estimated to sell between $450,000-$550,000. At the conclusion of the sale the vehicle had found another owner, selling for $412,500.
The car returned to the same auction in 2007, this time carrying an estimated value of $725,000 - $825,000. It was sold for nearly that estimate, falling short but non-the-less selling, for a high bid of $682,000 including buyer's premium.

The Cobra enjoyed a very long production lifespan through its multiple fiddles' it played; it began life as a Tojiero-Bristol, than an A.C. Ace, followed by the Ace Bristol and finally the Ace Ford. Just as it was ending its production life, Carroll Shelby breathed new life with the iconic 289 Cobra. This was soon superseded by the legendary 427 Cobra.
More power was needed to battle the big-block Corvettes and other high-potent racers of the day, so Shelby turned to Ford with their 427 cid V8. It would be placed in the belly of the Cobra, but several significant modifications were needed before the vehicle could be safely operated. The original ladder frame, with its transverse leaf springs, had been designed for an 85-hosrepower engine. The 400 horsepower 427 was more than the setup could handle. Using Ford's computers, a much stiffer chassis with four-wheel independent coil-spring suspension was devised. The updates continued, with the removal of the six-inch wire wheels for much wider Halibrand magnesium wheels. Since the larger wheels would not fit under the standard fenders, the craftsmen at the A.C. factory in England gave the Cobra fender flares. In the front, a large front inlet was shaped to provide air to cool the engine. The result of these aesthetic changes was an aggressive appearance on a small, potent vehicle.
This 427 Cobra with CSX 3162 was completed on August 18th of 1965. It was painted in red and given a black interior. It was sent to Shelby American via the S.S. Risanger.
The cars first owner was Edward Karees in the spring of 1966. It remained in his care for years. In August of 1986 it was sold to Allan D. Weiss. Weiss kept the car for 20 years until 2006 when it was sold to a noted muscle car collector.
This is a very original car that was given a re-paint during the mid-1980s. It retains its original 427 engine with dual four-barrel carburetors. It rides on six-spoke Halibrand alloy wheels, while the original wheels are kept in the current owner's possession.
This car has not been raced, crashed, or abused like so many Cobra's. It has had only three owners since new, with two of those being very long term care.
In 2007 this Cobra was brought to the Gooding & Company auction held in Pebble Beach, CA where it was estimated to sell for $800,000 - $900,000. Sadly, the lot failed to find an interested buyer willing to satisfy the cars reserve. The car was left unsold.

As wîth many British specialist manufacturers, AC Cars had been using the smooth, refined Bristol straight-6 engine in its small-volume production, including its AC Ace 2-seater roadster. The engine was a pre-World War II BMW design which was by the 1960s considered remarkably outdated. Bristol, a small independent automobile manufacturer in its own right, decided in 1961 to cease production of its engine and instead to use Chrysler small-block V8 engines. Non-plussed by this idea, AC started using the 2.6 liter Ford Zephyr in all of its cars. An idea was borne out of this concept and in September of that year, former champion racing driver Carroll Shelby approached AC about building a car that would accept a V-8 configuration. Chevrolet was not interested in providing their new 327ci V-8 due to too much direct competition wîth the Corvette, however Ford wanted a car that could compete wîth the radical new Sting Ray from across town. As luck would have it, they happened to have a brand new thin wall small block engine which could be used in this endeavor. The name Cobra came to Shelby 'in a dream', he recounted, and a legend was born.
By 1963 the original AC Bristol-based leaf spring Cobra was losing its supremacy in racing. In desperation, Shelby tried fitting a big Ford FE engine of 390ci. Ken Miles drove and raced the FE powered Mark II car and said that the car was virtually undrivable, naming it 'The Turd'. A new chassis was designed in cooperation wîth Ford in Detroit, then developed by Shelby American and designated the Mark III. A whole new chassis was built which featured 4' main chassis tubes (instead of 3') and a new coil spring suspension all around. Necessitated by the suspension redesign and the wont for a greater contact patch, the car had wide fenders and a larger radiator opening. It was powered by the famed 'side oiler' Ford 427 engine developing 425 bhp and attaining a top speed of 163 mph in the standard model and 485 bhp wîth a top speed of 180 mph in the competition model. The production of the Cobra Mark III began on January 1st 1965, three months after two prototypes had been sent to the Únited States in October of 1964.
CSX 3012 was invoiced to Shelby American on 1/11/65 from AC Cars, Ltd, and a Shelby American Work order #15067 was opened on 2/4/65. It was invoiced on 4/20/65 to Valley Mercedes Benz Service, 14104 Victory Blvd, Van Nuys, CA. as '1 427 Cobra, Chassis No CSX3012' at the cost of $9,700.00. Painted Astral Silver, a color often used in Mercedes racing cars, 3012 was picked up at Shelby American by company owner Lothar Motschenbacher. The racing linage of CSX 3012 featured its debut race at Riverside on May 2nd, 1965, then campaigned at the following weekend at Laguna Seca, three weeks later in Santa Barbara, a month later in Pomona on, and at the Mid-Ohio ÚSRRC event in early August of 1965. Late in 1965, Motschenbacher traded the car back to Shelby American, taking a 1965 Ford Country Squire Wagon and $7,000 in return for the Cobra.
After a thorough clean up, the car was sold on 12/7/65 to J.D. Hurt. He, however, did not choose to take delivery until the following spring, and agreed to allow Shelby American to rent CSX3012 to MGM Studios for use in the Elvis Presley movie Spinout. Records indicate an insurance claim for damage to the car while at MGM and Hurt's deposit was applied to another Cobra. CSX 3012 was once again repurchased by Shelby American and was invoiced on 4/5/66 to Donald Peckman. Peckman rebuilt the car and raced it during the 1966 season, painted white wîth a thin Blue stripe down the center of the car. Raced in Riverside and featured in a Car and Driver editorial, which stated it as being the best-appearing and fastest Cobra at 1966 ARRC. Early in 1967 Charles T. Oseid purchased the Cobra in the name of his company. Sterling Automotive Mfg. Co. Oseid continued to race prior to an unfortunate accident while being transported on a trailer in the early 1970's. Following this incident, the car was dismantled wîth Oseid retaining the salvageable parts and most importantly the ownership MSO document he obtained from Peckman.
In 1985 George Stauffer purchased the MSO and various parts to 3012, and had Brain Angliss of AutoKraft in England rebuild the car utilizing a new chassis and aluminum bodywork. The finished car, painted dark green, was sold prior to its actual completion in the summer of 1988 to George Gillett, then in 1992 it again changed hands to vintage racer Jim Philion. Featured in several prominent vintage events, including the Wine Country Classic held at Sears Point in June of 1995 and driven by Rick Titus, CSX 3012 also won Top Popular at SAAC-20 in 1995. Driven once again that August by Rick Titus at the Monterey Historics, this car received the Thomas W. Senter Memorial Award for representing the most significant Ford or Ford Powered vehicle at the event.
As one of the finest Shelby American automobiles, the ex-Lothar Motschenbacher 1965 Shelby 427 Cobra Full Competition offered here is an absolutely beautiful example is one of only 22 full competition models to leave the factory. Motschenbacher successfully campaigned this car in the '65 ÚSRRC Championships against Ken Miles in the factory 427 and Jim Hall's legendary Chaparrals. A year later, Elvis Presley and CSX 3012 co-starred in the hit movie 'Spinout.' From the fame this added to both Shelby and the music legend, CSX 3012 was to be known as The King's race car for all time. This Cobra includes complete ownership history and thorough documentation. Further, it features a concours-quality restoration and continues to achieve significant awards on both the show-field as well as the track.
This vehicle was offered for sale at the 2008 Russo & Steele Auction held in Monterey, California.

Chassis Num:
The original Cobra, having begun life as a Tojeiro-Bristol, then as an AC Ace, followed by the Ace Bristol and finally a Ford Ace, had been fitted with an 85 horsepower engine. By the time the Cobra had reached the hands of Shelby and properly matured over several years, it was fitted with a V8 engine that offered over 400 horsepower. This meant the original ladder frame with its transverse leaf springs were not intended to handle this much power, and a solution was required. A new platform was designed that was much stiffer and fitted with four-wheel independent coil-spring suspension. The six-inch wire wheels were replaced with wider Halibrand magnesium wheels. These wider wheels did not fit under the standard fenders so the artisans at the AC factory in England constructed substantial fender flares. The front was restyled with a large inlet to provide sufficient cooling to the large Ford powerplant. Upon completion, the Cobra had evolved into a very aggressive vehicle and it had the performance to back-up its looks.
This car is CSX3287 and was billed to Shelby American on July 8, 1966. It was sold two months later to the Ford dealership in White Plains, New York for the sum of $6,145. It had left the factory in the same color scheme it wears today, a red exterior with black interior.
It was sold on June 16th of 1967 to Bronx resident Jay Kulko. It spent the next 10 years with two owners in George. In 1976 it was bought by Greg Lonberger of Elmhurst, Illinois at which point the odometer read 27,337 miles. In 1978 it was purchased by Mike Forman. in 1986 it was purchased by Cindy Baker of California. She had it painted in the Shelby color of Guardsman Blue. It was sold a short time later to M.D.R. Enterprises of Los Angeles, Ca. It would pass through several more owners throughout the years.
The engine is a 427 CID V-8 with 425 horsepower and a single Holley 4-Barrle carburetor. There are 4-wheel disc brakes and a four-speed manual transmission.
In 2009, it was brought to the Gooding & Company auction held in Scottsdale, Arizona where it was estimated to sell for $750,000 - $850,000. Bidding failed to satisfy the vehicle's reserve and the lot was left unsold.

Chassis Num:
Production of the Cobra Mark III began on January 1 of 1965. The chassis, designed in cooperated with Ford, used 4-inch main chassis tubes and had coil spring suspension all around. The prior chassis had used 3-inch tubes. The new car had wider fenders and a larger radiator opening. Power was from the 'side oiler' Ford 427 engine rated at 485 horsepower and offering a top speed of 180 mph in the competition model.
Cars were sent from England to the United States as unpainted rolling chassis. Shelby American workshop finished the ensemble. In total, 300 Mark III cars were sent to Shelby in Los Angeles during the years 1965 and 1966, including the competition version. Also, 27 small block narrow fender versions, which were known as the AC 289, were sold in Europe. It was raced successfully by many privateers and went on to win races all the way into the 1970's. 31 unsold competition cars were detuned and made road worthy and called S/C for semi-competition. Today, these are the rarest and most valuable models and can sell for in excess of 1.5 million dollars.
The AC 427, also known as the Mark III, carried 18 imperial gallons and its empty weight was approximately 2,300 pounds. This example is one of the rare 427 S/C models.
Chassis Num:
This Shelby A/C Cobra 427 has not been modified except for the addition of modern tires and wheels, and retains its complete original drive train. It currently rides on a rare set of Goodyear 8.15 x 15 Blue Dot tires mounted on the original Sunburst wheels. The car was repainted in the original Rangoon Red in acrylic lacquer in the winter of 2008 and 2009. It is a three-owner car with no significant crash history. The car was delivered to Hayward Motors of Hayward, CA, and was soon sold to a Brooke Clark. His was a 'driver' which he kept for 30+ years. Selling in 1999, it then had 35,000 miles on the odometer and was tired. The next owner sold it in 2004 to Earl Pfeifer who used only original parts to restore it back to perfection. The current owners bought the car to drive, and have completed around thirty-five, 1,000 mile classic car tours. It was awarded the 427 Cobra by Peter Brock at the SAAC 32 convention in Salt Lake City.
Chassis Num:
This car, chassis number CSX 3040, is one of 31 427 S/C 'Semi-Competition' specification Cobras completed by Shelby-American Motors of Venice, California. The genesis of the S/C began when Shelby found his Cobras in the same FIA-designated Competition GT class as the racing cars in Ford's own GT40 program. Shelby agreed not to campaign the 427 and, with 19 of the 51 cars already ordered by private teams, it was decided that the remaining 31 cars should be completed and marketed as 'the fastest street cars ever built.'
Chassis Num:
This car debuted in the United States touring along with a GT40 Carroll Shelby was promoting at the time. Serial number 3021 was purchased from its original owner in 2009. This well documented 3,800 mile Cobra is the first of 29 SC's produced in the mid-Sixties and one of only two painted Hertz Gold.
Weighing just over 2300 pounds and producing close to 500 horsepower, the horsepower to weight ratio, along with suspension and handling improvements from Shelby, had a profound effect on sports car racing and the 'Muscle Car' era in general.
Chassis Num:
This Cobra, chassis number CSX 3006, is one of the production-competition 427 Cobras developed by Shelby for private racing teams. The car competed in two races in America before it was taken back to Europe. It was sold to the Chequered Flag garage of London in the summer of 1966 where it was converted to right-hand drive and repainted in Wimbledon White with a glossy black hood and cowl. Its biggest success was a win at Brands Hatch driven by co-drivers David Piper and Bob Bondurant. Like the car itself, the Piper-Bondurant racing duo represented the finest racing talent from England and America.

This Shelby Cobra was billed to Shelby American on July 18th of 1966 and later invoiced to Hayward Ford in Hayward, California. It was delivered new in red with black interior with a 428, as all 3200 series cars were. The original owner is believed to have been Mr. Bob Schiro, of Santa Clara, California, who retained the car until 1968. Bruce Canepa acquired the car and kept it for the next several years. During Canepa's ownership, he had a 427 CID engine rebuilt and installed.
By 1988, the car was in the care of Mr. Steve Burnett, of Newport Beach, California. Burnett commissioned a freshening about two years later, then offered for sale with only 17,560 miles showing on the odometer. A German collector became the car's next owner, and it was sent to Germany. It remained with the importer Mr. Hans Weber for two years before it was sold to Hendrik Hoffman in May of 1995. Five months later, Mr. Hoffman had the car on the cover of the automotive publication
Motor Klassik
. In 2007, Andre Ahrle from Monaco purchased 3293.
During the car's life, it has accumulated 21,000 miles. It has been given a recent cosmetic restoration. Currently, it retains its original bodywork, on the original chassis, and its correct, as-delivered livery of red on black. The 427 engine has a dual quad setup and mated to a four-speed manual transmission.
In 2012, this car was offered for sale at RM Auctions Monterey, California sale. It was estimated to sell for $800,000 - $900,000. As bidding came to a close, the car was sold for the sum of $819,500 inclusive of buyer's premium.

Chassis Num:
It was written on the Shelby order form, for this 427 Cobra, as 'Narrow Hip' because of its smaller rear flares. It was trucked from Los Angeles to Jack Loftus Ford in Hinsdale, Illinois who sold it to a local doctor. Under his ownership it came back for some warranty work - a new tachometer is on record among other components. It was sold in the early 1970s locally, and then re-sold, again locally, still in its original blue, to be under the same ownership through at least the 1990s. The car has recently been acquired by its present owners.
It is estimated that only 10 of these rare vehicles remain in their original unmodified configuration. This model is considered by many to be the most elegant of the Cobras. The 427 was developed in 1965 with assistance from Ford and AC Cars. The powerful engine required a stronger chassis and wider fenders to accommodate the larger tires. Of the 300 plus big block cars produced between 1965 and 1967, CSX 3131 is an example of the few produced with narrow rear fenders.
Chassis Num:
This is an S/C spec car (meaning 'spec built comp car') and has been owned by the current owners since June of 1992. It has been restored with paint to replicate Bob Grossman's original comp car (chassis CSX3016). This car was originally unpainted when shipped to Dockery Ford in Morristown, New Jersey, painted gold and raced by Grossman in SCCA events. It was sold in 1969 and soon after it was crashed badly, killing the new owner. As a rebuild it changed colors (to red, then to dark blue) and motors, pushrod to SOHC 427, one more crash (with Cadillac), and once fixed became the 'model' for several magazine features and David Kimble's iconic cutaway drawing.

This Shelby Cobra, chassis number CSX 3359, is the next-to-last 427 Cobra produced. Shelby American billed the car on December 14, 1966. At the time, it was equipped with a 427 V-8 with single 4V carburetor and finished in red with black interior. It was ordered as a road car and sent to Pletcher Ford, of Jenkinton, Pennsylvania at $1,000 off dealer cost, and was trucked to Jenkintown on October 16, 1967. Pletcher Ford repair order no. 2020 records minor storage and shipping damage having been incurred, necessitating repair of the left hand rocker panel, the Cobra emblem on the trunk lid, and replacement of the spare wheel and tire at a cost of $211.95.
The first owner of the Cobra was Frank W. Hultslander, of Norristown, Pennsylvania. It was driven sparingly before being consigned to Hexagon Motors, of London, in November of 1971. Hexagon Motors imported the car and purchased it themselves. It remained in storage from 1972 until 1976. The next owner was Richard Buxbaum, of Hinsdale, Illinois, who kept it for a short time. In 1978, it was advertised for sale with a price of $85,000. At the time, it had just 512 original miles. Jerome A. Shinkay, of Janesville, Wisconsin became the vehicle's next owner. In the early 1980s, it was advertised for sale. It was passed to James S. Ward, of Atherton, California, who resold it to the Ferrari dealer in Los Gatos. From there, it passed through the hands of Timothy Lewy into the ownership of collector John Mozart. In 1998, the Cobra was purchased by Lawrence Bowman.
In 2004, Mr. Bowman had the car restored. The mechanical components were rebuilt to original specifications. The body was left on the chassis, but it was stripped to the bare frame and body shell, metal-finished, primed, and repainted the original Monza Red. Much of the interior remains original. It wears its original 'sunburst' wheels riding on the original Goodyear blue dot tires.
Currently, the car has just 1,819 original miles.

Chassis number CSX 3015 is very special for so many reasons. It is one of only 23 427 Competition Roadsters built, it was originally built for Carroll Shelby, and one off two Super Snake Cobras constructed. On September 7, 1965, CSX 3015 was shipped and invoiced to Ford Advanced Vehicles, England, as a 427 Cobra Competition roadster. The car returned from Europe in late 1966. Early to mid-1967, CSX 3015 was converted into the Super Snake model and re-classified as 427 Cobra Semi-Competition (SC). Part of the reason for the conversion was the 427 Cobra Competition did not have a muffler, windshield, bumpers, and other items required for the street. Thus, Cobra Competitions were race cars and not street legal. All 427 Cobra SCs had titles and were legal to drive on public roads.
This car, CSX 3015, is one of two Super Snake Cobras built (the other example is CSX 3303 - which was built for Bill Cosby). CSX 3303 began as a 1967 427 street car and was retained by Shelby American as a PR car before being converted into a Super Snake for Cosby. Mr. Cosby drove it once and then returned it to Shelby American. Shelby American sold it to S&C Motors in San Francisco, who then sold it to their customer, Tony Maxey. Sadly, Mr. Maxey drove CSX 3303 off a cliff and into the Pacific Ocean.
CSX 3015 is a full Competition Roadster that retains its original body with its 1967 aluminum 'Super Snake' hood. Currently, it has its original date coded 1965 Competition Girling CR and BR calipers. It has a 427 Competition 377 rear end with its original rear end oil cooler and pumps. Under the hood is the original 1965 date-coded engine, 5M17, December 17, 1965.
In 2015, the car was brought to the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, Az. where it was sold for the sum of $5,115,000 including buyer's premium.

Chassis Num:
Ex-racer Carroll Shelby created the legendary Cobra in 1962 by installing Ford's lightweight V-8 in a slightly lengthened nose of the AC Ace. AC's Thames-Ditton facility shipped the body and chassis to California, where Shelby America dropped in the engine, made numerous performance modifications, and completed assembly. The first 75 production models were equipped with Ford's 260 CID V8, while later cars used the 289 CID / 306 horsepower V-8 like that of the Shelby Mustang GT350. Beginning in 1965 in an effort to keep pace with big-block-equipped Corvettes, Shelby upsized the engine yet again; this time using Ford's 427 CID, 425 horsepower side-oiler V-8.
A total of 654 units were produced from 1962-1968, including 260 of the 427-equipped cars like this example. Today, Cobras are arguably the most collectible of all postwar cars. This example, chassis number CSX3104, was used as a model by Tom Kirkham to manufacture his replica Cobras in the 1990s. Painted its original Guardsman Blue over a black interior, it was restored in 2012.
Chassis Num:
Carroll Shelby turned his attention from driving race cars to building America's ultimate sports-race car. As a result, the AC Cobra was born and it was not to be taken lightly. For nearly 20 years the 427 Cobra was known as the fastest sports car in the world. The cars were so fast that Shelby challenged anyone in the passenger seat to grab a 100 dollar bill he taped to the dash while the car accelerated at full speed. First sold in Miami, Florida by J. D. Ball Ford for $6,408.00, CSX3187 is currently in the hands of it's 5th owner, being just 1 of 260 built as road going 427 Cobras. Benefiting from a second restoration the car is now presented as it was the day it was born from Carroll's Los Angeles airport hangar factory. Restored for the purpose of touring, CSX3187 is now being enjoyed on the open road.
Chassis Num:
Known as 'King Cobra', this Cobra is the only Motion Performance Cobra which has ever set up for drag racing by Joel Rosen at his Baldwin New York shop. CSX 3159 left Shelby American's factory in Los Angeles, California in late 1965. The original owner purchased the car for the sole purpose to go drag racing. It was immediately taken to Motion Performance and Joel Rosen to set up the car to compete for the NHRA national record. Rosen drove the Cobra three hours from his shop in Baldwin, New York to Atco Dragway in Atco, New Jersey. After installing racing slicks and changing spark pugs, Rosen's first outing in the 'King Cobra' broke the AA/SP national record at 10.67 ET. It also set the NASCAR national record with a 10.40 ET @ 130 mph. In 1968, the Cobra set the NHRA national record at 10.30 ET @ 133 mph. For many years the King Cobra enjoyed complete domination of the Northeast sports car production classes.
The formula for the success of the Cobra came through a man named Carroll Shelby adapting a powerful Ford engine into a nimble, British sports car.
A.C. Cars of Thames Ditton in Surrey, England had been producing the Ace since 1954. It was designed by John Tojeiro and featured an independent suspension by transverse leaf springs. The tubular frame body of the vehicle took its styling cues from Ferrari. The original engine used in the Ace was a 1991 cc, over-head-cam engine designed by John Weller, the founder of AC, in the 1920s. In 1956, an optional Bristol engine became available. This was a BMW derived, 1971 cc six-cylinder engine that was capable of producing 125 horsepower. With the Bristol engine, the Ace captured many victories on the race tracks around the world. It even won the SCCA Class E championship three years in a row.
In 1959, Bristol ceased its six-cylinder engine production. When Bristol stopped supplying A.C. with the engine, the production of the Ace ceased. Carroll Shelby quickly negotiated a deal where A.C. would supply him with the chassis. Now all Shelby needed was an appropriate engine. In 1961, Ford introduced the 221 cubic-inch small block engine. This was a new lightweight, thin wall-cast, V8 engine that produced 164 horsepower. Shelby approached Ford about the use of the engine for the 2-seat sports car. Ford agrees.
In February of 1962, a 260 HiPo engine and Borg-Warner four-speed manual gearbox was fitted into the aluminum-bodied Cobras. The AC Shelby Ford Cobra was complete.
In April of 1962, the first Cobra with chassis CSX 2000 was painted yellow and shipped to the New York Auto Show where it appeared on the Ford display. The vehicle was an instant success and attracted much attention. Orders came faster than Shelby could build. The prototype CSX 2000 was continuously being repainted for magazine reviews. The purpose was to create an illusion that more Cobras existed.
In 1963 the engine size increased to 289 cubic-inches. Rack-and-pinion steering was added to the vehicle.
Two Cobras were entered into the grueling 24-Hours of Le Mans endurance race. Carroll Shelby himself drove one of the vehicles. Ford had refused to provide an engine so Shelby, with the help of A.C. cars and Ed Hugus, prepare the cars. One of the Cobras managed to capture a seventh place finish, a major accomplishment.
Dan Gurney became the first American driver to win an FIA race in an American car when he won the Bridgehampton 500KM race in September of 1963 while driving a Cobra.
In 1964, the Cobra returned to LeMans where it finished fourth overall and first in the GT class.
Near the end of 1964, the Cobra 427 was unveiled to the press. If featured a new tubular, aluminum body, coil spring chassis, and a 427 cubic-inch, 425 horsepower engine. The car was able to go from zero to 100 mph and back to zero in less than 14 seconds.
In 1967, the last 427 Cobra was built and in 1968, the last 427 Cobra was sold by Carroll Shelby.
Ford had shifted their resources to the new GT40 and modified Mustang programs. In 1966, three GT-40 Mark II's crossed the finish line at Le Mans capturing first, second, and third.

A sink in need of a pedestal....help!
So for Christmas we received a pedestal sink that was ordered off of Overstock.com. The pedestal portion ended up being broken. When we spoke to Overstock they refunded the money told us we could keep the product but cannot replace it. My question is, is it possible to purchase a pedestal portion for our sink that we don't know what the brand is? Or do we have to buy a complete new pedestal and sink unit? Any feedback would be great.
Thank you!
Very unlikely---I suggest you take a picture--then make a tracing of the profile of the top of the pedestal.
Then start looking at stores like Habitat For Humanity---
Unless you can find a used one the cost of that one part may be the same as a new one with shipping.
Still have the box, ad or the recept from Overstock? That should tell you the brand and model #.

In addition to a degree in art and design (Cornell University), Nathaniel Stern holds a Masters of Professional Studies in Interactive Telecommunications (ITP, New York University), and a PhD from an Electronic and Electrical Engineering Department (Trinity College Dublin). He has also worked as a designer, consultant, and/or coder at and with hi-tech companies in New York, San Francisco, Milwaukee and Johannesburg. He has been lead, mentor and/or Co-PI in several state-wide and national engineering and entrepreneurship grants, including three projects through the National Science Foundation, and work with Stanford and Venturewell. In short, Stern "speaks" business and engineering, with a sensitivity to the relationships between culture and industry – how the latter support and mobilize each other, in both the short- and long-term. Stern's expertise have helped businesses come up with new products and ideas, grow or invest in new areas, and build new prototypes for testing.
In his time as a professor at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Stern has consulted on and supported projects at Rexnord, Rockwell, TAPCO, Johnson Controls, GE Medical, Aurora Health Care, the Medical College of Wisconsin, DRS Power and Control, the Wisconsin Department of Traffic, and more; he has helped to place students at startups, engineering and market-based companies, museums and galleries, and consulting and design firms, across the country; and through his efforts as a Co-Founder and core team member of the UWM Startup Challenge and later the Lubar Center for Entrepreneurship, he continues to fund and advise several new companies in the Milwaukee area every year. For Stern, this work is completely in line with the work he does in the arts and humanities, the latter including performances and exhibitions worldwide, academic and mainstream writing, and other diverse activities that might manifest as, for example, empowerment workshops for HIV-positive township teens in South Africa, Fulbright-funded writing seminars for postgraduates in design, or one-on-one mentoring for local artists through the Milwaukee Artist Resource Network. In all, he creates fertile ground through investment in advanced research and human resources, which in turn makes for ingenuity and opportunity across the culture and industry ecosystem.
