As long as nothing 'happened' to the car, I'd say it's a bargain.
Everything mentioned is an easy fix.
Windshield rake?
Dent in expansion tank?
Wrinkly seat?
Ride height?
Hood alignment?
Come on, guys.

I agree! just look at that low, mean stance and the rear tire perfectly shrouded by the fender bulge (as the automotive gods intended). There's an almost identical photo of another red Cobra in the classifieds with the rear fender sitting way high above the tire - a look that's become so commonplace from more recent manufacturers.

I read through all of the comments before taking a look and yep, the ebay photos do look odd but on their website, most of the pics posted help normalize the car (some).

The angle of the picture taken does make the seat look like a nightmare for a passenger if they're above 5'2". The only other comment I have is the Frankenstein wiring job on the batteries. Instead of going with sealed batteries, it looks like they put in two batteries from Wally World and didn't bother covering them up.....God forbid someone accidentally drop something across those terminals.

Regardless, the car is listed as "Sale Pending" on their site.

Looks like somebody stepped up, with a little effort should make for a nice car.
Congrats to the new owner.
