Love this car
I have had it about a month and really love the car. Nothing special, an entry level Cobra, but it does run sweet.

Looks very similar to mine. I also have a mkII. I have the same wheels on mine. Color is different though. Mine is yellow. Our roll bars/sidepipes are reversed though. My roll bar is chrome and black sidepipes. Yours is a bit more finished than mine though. Mine doesn't have any badges on it or a steering wheel badge.
Be thankful your battery is inside the trunk. Mine is mounted under the car and in front of the tank. I had to replace it a few months ago and it was a royal pain. I wish mine had rear discs like yours. Nice car. Have fun. |
I am not crazy about the wheels, I wish I had the knock-offs, and the tires are a little hi-tech for me, I would rather have billboards. I did not like the color at first, but it has grown on me. I am going to put AFR heads on it, when I can afford it.

Looks great, you got a great car.
Like you said, just change the wheels and tires, and you are done. Another thing would be to chrome the roll bar, But that is all I would do to it |
AFR 205's
Looks like a great entry level roadster and FFR builds a great frame/kit! Congrats on the buy. ;) If you are interested I have a set of AFR 205 heads. They list for $1,900 new. Their decks have been shaved .15000th to create a 57.5cc chamber w/ new guides, extra heavy duty springs, viton seats, the works! :) These AFR's are a serious set of lungs for any sbf! Over 300cfm!! :MECOOL: I bought them to build a sbf, but I ended up going BBF. I'm not really in a big hurry to sell them. But I wouldn't mind a 2x4 MR intake for my FE. I'll take $1,000+ shipping. If you are interested, drop me a line! :D Oh, I also have a set of Comp Cam, top of the line SS 1.6 roller rockers. Over $400 new, I'll let for $200.
WELCOME TO THE ADDICTION :eek: THERE IS NO CURE!! :LOL: |
This post made me realize that it has now been 40 years since I bought my first Cobra. And for some reason I still love the cars. :)

Thanks, Silversmith, I will keep that in mind. I have to buy a lift first, my neighbors are going in on one from Greg Smith, Inc. I do want to put aluminum heads on the engine and I know AFR are the best. PM me your phone number.
