I take it that's your car on Cobra Country now...?

*****************
For Sale: 427SC Cobra reproduction by Exact427 and Roger Bullock in Austin, Texas. Rangoon Red (correct single-stage, as per the original)/black upholstery. The BIG Picture: Click Here! This li’l red reptile is a breathtakingly accurate recreation of a Shelby 427SC... as commented to me by a Shelby American appraiser. This is the third serpent produced by Roger; I purchased it from him as a roller with no cockpit appurtenances except seats. Roger's attention to detail is superb. The coachwork is carbon fiber; the carbon fiber is painstakingly wrapped around shaped steel wire on the edges of the wheel wells to closely recreate the rolled-edge appearance of aluminum skin. The entire body weighs only 46 pounds (21 kg), thus significantly boosting this drivin’ machine’s power-to-weight ratio. You also get a (second) racing windscreen taken from a mold from CSX3002. BIG broadside shot: Click Here! Under the hood: original 427 side-oiler bored 0.030” over with steel crank and LeMans rods, Milodon ‘Cheater’ cam drive. 10.1:1 compression (runs on premium pump gas); a gear-reduction starter; racing oil pan by Armando (with electric heater for winter prep). BIG Photo of powerplant: Click Here! Geartrain: billet aluminum flywheel and Centerforce clutch assembly inside of a Lakewood bellhousing, 5-speed gearbox, new Salisbury IRS with Dana 44 gears and Spicer joints. Wilwood brakes. BIG side-grille closeup shot: Click Here! Rolling stock: (6-pin) pin-drive genuine Trigo wheels shod with BFG Radial T/A raised-letter rubber. In the cockpit: original-equipmenet–correct Moto-Lita hardwood-rimmed steering wheel, Autometer gauges (with ‘correct’ reverse speedometer), concealed electrical-system ‘kill’ switch, adjustable seats, carpet and vinyl upholstery by Unique Auto Upholstery in Scottsdale [who rendered that splendid work on Harley Cluxton’s originals including the Super Shelby that sold for $5 million at Barrett Jackson]; two 6V dry-cell batteries (12V system) behind passenger seat. BIG luggage compartment shot: Click Here! Driven 3,000 miles and fully sorted—you’ll get no unpleasant surprises. $75,000 obo. Contact John at (602) 692-5108 MST, or email: JRFoy427@hotmail.com
