Default unique owners

I most say it's about time someone got us to come out of the Cobra closet. i have a 289 FIa built in 1994 and it still looks as good as it most have then. Sorry, will try and post some pics. soon.

Aj.

I'ts not a Cobra or even a Unique technically , but Alan Weaver hand built my GTD40, one of two total built at the Unique shops. I think mine is the second one. The craftsmanship is better than some real GT40s that I've seen. Check out my gallery for a lot more pics. Thanks Alan!

Default Unique #1

Here's Mom & Dad's Unique 427 SC, 9 1/2 years old, assembled by Dad, my brother, and me. Originally built with a bone-stock '92 Mustang long block converted to carburetion, it's now running a 383 Windsor stroker built by my brother.

Default Unique #2

And here's our Unique 289 FIA car. Found it here on Club Cobra 5 years ago next month. Since then, have switched from FI to carb, generally worked the engine bay over to look more period-correct, narrowed the rear, shed the sidepipes, and some other odds & ends.

(And posting these pics has made me realize I need to shoot some much better ones!)

Thanks Tony! I've owned a lot of cars over the years, but none as long as I've owned my Unique. Even though I was not the original purchaser, the Weavers treated me like family from day one and still do up to today. Owning this car has been a great adventure in so many more ways than one. Working on it, driving it and even just looking at it are as enjoyable now as they were when I first drove it home.

Keep it coming guys. And Alan, thanks for joining in - that engine bay looks cleaner than an operating room!
