I drove SPO 2404 with a 427R #443(?) and did not buy it because it bucked like a horse. The Club Cobra guys said the carb was not adjusted properly. I ended up buying SPF 2608 with a 427 SR #460 and love it. The original owner replaced the carb with a Bigs Performance Holley 750 Double-Pumper. I'm not sure why other than he didn't think it ran well with original carb. My Cobra doesn't roll smoothly either and probably needs carb adjustment. If you can get the price below $60k you are doing very well on the price. There is no way you will get this Cobra in the low $50s, unless you find a very distressed situation. How long do you want to wait? April weather is getting pretty nice for a drive! Oh yeah, the odometer... As I was packing my new Cobra on the transport truck, the seller mentioned it was on the 3rd speedo because it kept bouncing. It still bounced and the speed was reading about 20% low! Don't get too excited about the low miles.... you never really know on these beauties!
