Not Ranked
Having a Chevy engine in a Cobra detracts from the value of the car. I think Arntz Cobras came with Chevy engines.
Without looking at the car, it sounds overpriced to me. One with a Chevy engine I'd think would be in the $25k-$30k range. These are also harder to sell, if you decided to get ride of it.
Look before you leap. There are a LOT of Cobras out there for sale. You're better off to find one with a Ford engine, preferably a 427 side-oiler or a 428 police interceptor. Unless, you opt for a 289 FIA or slabside cobra, then a 289 or a 302 is correct and will not detract from the car's value. Do some more research before you jump into anything!
