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.

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.

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....

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

...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...

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) > $$$$$

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.

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.

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.

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

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..." That's one of RodKnock's favorites, BTW.

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.
