I wish people would have the minimum honesty to not describe a replica (and that car is pushing even that description) as an AC, Shelby, or even Cobra. It's no wonder that Shelby gets exercised.

For a car to be called a replica even, it needs to at least passably like the original....
Did it get dropped, or what?

Trying to figure out where his head was on the rear. Going for the badazz street racer?

No offense but, is the rear view mirror functional?

"Perky Butt" Definitely suites this car.

It's interesting.

Obviously someone put a lot of time and work into this thing. Which then begs the question, what were they trying to do?

Hilarious car!

He did some cool stuff to the car, but it looks like it's offering anal sex.

Sort of missed the point of a Cobra.

If it lifts one of its rear tires, I would have a good guess at what it would be doing.

Well certainly no need for the optional wheelie bars.

I noticed in the vid that the roll bar is not attached to the frame. It goes up with the body when it's raised.

He could double the value I think. Provided the wheel base was right, he could buy a Superformance or Mongoose body.



Not trying to be a smartypants. All GM would sell better and those Grand Sports are $$$$.
