I sure hope this is not another original Cobra that's going to be trashed by the resident replica "experts"?

The first four 427 street Cobras were all shipped by TWA air freight. They were CSX 3101, 3118, 3120, and 3127. The latter (3127) was the only "narrow hip" example, and it was used as a PR car on the Cobra Caravan as well as for display at various dealerships.

It was the narrow-hip prototype; it has since been "S/C-ized," as currently shown. |

I get a little sad when I see street changed to S/C...it's amazing how many had that conversion done over the years. |

When you say changed, does that mean they installed a whole new rear clip or did they modify the existing body to make it wider?

I think you'll have to ask Mike McCluskey that one.

I'm betting it will be a reserve not met at $650K. Shall we start the pool?

well I went down that road with #3147. Had a set of the SC original rims an had to have the flairs. BUT that was a long time ago. Today I would just buy another car the way I "needed" it. Oh I have to add. I now would really like a 427 street car.. NO hoodscoop, roll bar or side exhaust. Getting old I guess.
