CSX4798 on Cobra Country for $98,500
 
No affiliation, but just seems like a pretty darn good deal for a fiberglass CSX, especially since Patrick keeps yammering on about how new ERA's are $100,000 to build.

Not a traditional color, but not beige either. ;)

There have been a few (2-3) fiberglass CSX's sold on BaT between $115,000-$125,000 (blues and blacks in color), so if you've been looking for one, well, here it is.

No, I can live with that... it's something else. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I'm sure others will. :cool:

The only items that appear a bit different to me are the sidepipe cover, what appears to be a mounting bracket for a pad on the roll bar and no windshield wipers.

For me, other than color, which I don't like, the BFG TA's have to replaced immediately and the wheels are WAY too shiny for me.

But fiberglass CSX rollers have got to be around $105,000-$110,000 now.

But I'm no expert.

She's sittin' a weeeeee bit high, too.

Yes; yes she is. It's almost like the pics of pure rollers that have no engine or trans in them. Not that bad, but you're pointing in the right direction....:cool:

dcdoug 08-21-2017 03:46 PM

The angle of the pic with the visor bisecting the roll bar also creates a strange effect.

SFSDFGT 08-21-2017 11:41 PM

...and the shift lever looks way too long.

Ad says the tires are Goodyear Eagle GT II's, not BFGs.

But yeah, price sure seems low for what it is. If I liked the color better, I might be tempted to pick up a second cobra...

peterpjb 08-22-2017 07:47 AM

only good price when taking the car as it is,

too high, too shiny, wrong color, wrong stripes, wrong tires, wrong sidepipe, wrong engine (maybe) and wrong trans (maybe) > $$$$$ ;)

csx4017 08-22-2017 08:59 AM

Rodneym, I think she needs spats....LOL........but the number of roll bars is correct. I just finished my ad for my CSX4000 and this gentleman is not helping. Hope all is well with you.
ERA#520

rodneym 08-22-2017 09:05 AM

Just picked up Blue at McC last night - getting a splitter made.
I had them do a couple extra things while she was there.
Now they call me Rick II. ;)

csx4017 08-22-2017 10:13 AM

There will never be a Rick II.........I just sold a splitter and bumpers off the ERA to Nick. I assume Pete fab'd the splitter........so Blue is a Street ?
You need a Blue S/C......I stopped by McCluskey's and saw your car under wraps....looks very nice and the angle is now perfect....Mine was off until we kicked her back.

rodneym 08-22-2017 10:25 AM

Blue is a CSX Street. And yup, Pete made it.
When it's painted you should come by.

MCoop 08-22-2017 10:28 AM

The rear tires do not fill the wheel wells. Not sure if the body is sitting too high or the sidewalls of the tires are too small.

... and I thought you were talking about the Bobby Vinton song. You know, the one that goes "I'm Mr. Blue...":cool: That's one of RodKnock's favorites, BTW.

rodneym 08-22-2017 10:33 AM

Bobby Vinton is a little late in the game for ol' Knockers.

Nope, RodKnock often refers to him as "The Polish Prince of Poch." He's quite the fan.;)

I'm more of a Big Sean, Migos, Khalid and Post Malone fan. I've heard of Bobby Vinton, but I couldn't tell ya what he sung.
