Pre-owned Cobra for someone with no mechanical experience?

SS,
There are Lots of well built used ones you can find. Don't go for one that's priced to inexpensive.
Find a good garage or get to know a car guy that is kowledegable about cars,you can trust,have them check some out even if it costs you a few dollars. Money well spent.
A lot of the guys on this could walk you through most minor repairs you may have to do. As long as this isn't a daily driver if it take 2 weeks to minor task it doesn't matter.
I may be selling mine in a month or two
Depending on your budget you could have one built too.
Hope this helps
Not all at guys know a lot about cars but can still love cool cars
