That's called progress. The Gatorback is kind of like 8-tracks, Betamax machines and portable car phones. No longer available when the design is obsolete and there are far superior and more modern replacements available. :drive:

But don't worry, after another ten years or so, maybe Coker, etc. will start producing vintage "Gatorbacks" for the ol' Cobras. ;)

If this is true they are still going to make them. Pretty reliable source: Right now the Gatoracks are being re-worked by the manufacturer...........They haven't given us a date yet when they will be available...........First batch had some defects.......Check back with me in about 60 days........Maybe by then I will have an answer.....
The Master Distributor said "2nd Quarter"....so by June......
