I see from your profile that you live in L.A., so the SB100 definitely adds value for your situation. $41K is a really good price for a used SPF, but I'd really go over that damage with the owner and request to see pics of it before the repair (he would have these for insurance purposes). The Roush engine is a plus, but the components on the rest of the car (as listed) are nothing special vis-a-vis other Cobras/SPFs. It's possible that one of the previous tires/rims was damaged from the accident, hence the new matching rubber on all four corners. Maybe he was running BFG stones and those helped contribute to the accident?!?
You get what you pay for in any of these cars, so if you have more room in your budget then buy the most Cobra that you can afford. You can find several clean SPFs in the mid-40's all day long, fully sorted out and ready to go. Yes, it seems like a good deal at $41K. But in today's economy you can find "the one" if you have some patience (and even with SB-100 already done).
What city is the car located in? If close to OC, maybe I can check it out for you?
