We had them in mom's van and in my dad's truck growing up in the 90s lol. Dad had a 102" whip antenna, and that old Cobra would get some range on it! We easily got 20-25 miles reception. I had the same Cobra CB in my car back in college, and it helped me SO much. If hit the interstate and ask a bear report. And if it was clear we'd be smooth sailing.

What an absolutely beautiful piece of history! I love seeing old things working after a hundred years haha. I got to thinking, I bet that sucker weighs 1200-1500lbs. Can you imagine how many people it would take to move it out of there?
