Anyone in or near Ridgewood NJ.
 
I've tried and tried to reach out to the Khansmith about his Cobra for sale in our For Sale posting. To no avail. Brent (EM-0785) found his blog, on this build, but still no way to reach him. I've spoke with (Adam is Adam, and Jim 1795) but without more info. we're dead in the water, does anyone know this guy or where in Ridgewood he lives, I'm very interested in buying his car. Any help would be wonderful, Cheers TommyRot. Khan Smith's 427 Roadster Replica Build Blog

He may be away for the weekend and not have immediate access to the web. Also, in the past, I've found the "contact the seller" option in the classifieds ended up in my spam folder. Instead, I suggest the following:

Use the send a message via email on his profile:
Club Cobra - View Profile: khansmith
Also send a PM using that option as well from his profile. The notifications from either or generally never ended up in my spam folder.

Yes, I sent 3PM's plus on the contact post for the ad, since the 19th, I'll try a just a PM on his profile. I would like someone around the area to put eyes on it, A looooooong way's away from Washington State ;) Bill, I'm concerned about it siting so long, again the issue with the seals, bearing, etc Kind of a pig in poke. Thanks Guy's I let you know if I get any reply back Cheers, TommyRot.

Breath in, breath out, relax. If it is meant to be, you will be the first person he responds to.

Alfa02, If 86Sebring can not be of assistance, I should be able to put eyes on the car for you. Best regards, John

That's Funny Bill, Brent (EM-0785) said the same thing yesterday at our first Cobra meeting in 18months, when I showed him, a link to a vintage Camaro , and he said "Tom, Cool your Jets" when a Chevy starts looking good:) Thanks to 86Serbing, and you John ERA174, as soon as I hear anything, I'll contact you guys, here hoping, Cheers TommyRot

86Sebring 08-31-2021 02:06 PM

Hi Alfa
just curious, were you able to get in touch with the seller?

Alfa02 09-01-2021 06:24 AM

Not a word, Nothing. Kinda strange don't you think? I've found a couple others on this coast but nothing I would take home to show Mother :) I did find 2-of the worse (Home built, junkyard drivetrains left dirty, rat nest wiring etc.) FFR's that I ever laid eyes on, confirmed by our FFR expert ;) So onwards & upwards. Thanks 86 Sebring for checking in, Cheers Tom.

Alfa02 09-30-2021 07:26 PM

I'd say that's the car, Hummmmm wonder what the story is getting from NJ to Fla. Well it not meant to be, I brought a Really nice Pacific Roadster (347 Dart block, 5-speed, 3000 miles) out of Az. from some of the nicest people. All history, One owner, no money spared, and Ok'ed by Karlos & Scotty, doesn't get much better than that. Thanks 86Serbing for keeping tabs on it. Cheers TommyRot.

High bidder has 83% of his bidder history with this seller. Not saying anything negative about this, but it sure brings up a bunch of questions in my mind.

@86Sebring, I believe this to be different Cobra??, wheels have been removed (Had Halibrand, easy swap) radiator overflow tank gone, along with turkey pan, and sun visors. Dash, gauges, carpet, shifter, steering wheel all different. That's just spending a few quick minutes, looking it over, I still be could wrong ;) The ad sounds like something a Cobra person wouldn't write, Never seen rain or "Dirt"?? A really cool GRADUATION PRESENT HUH??? I would love to hear the story if it is :) May just contact them, worth an Email, Thanks 86Sebring, Cheers Tom.

Tom,
I believe you’re correct. Looks different from the Kahnsmith car. This car has been for sale for quite a while on a few different sites.

86Sebring 06-04-2022 05:39 PM

Of course, you guys are correct, sorry about that. I see a green cobra and automatically think of my neighbor town Ridgwood...

86Sebring 06-04-2022 05:44 PM

I agree, heck of a graduation present, this cobra a teenagers first car, yikes
I can think of a few more suitable first cars...

Alfa02 06-04-2022 08:57 PM

@86Sebring, Patrick found an address for Khan Smith, in Ridgewood NJ. I can PM it, maybe find out the story on his, we know it's not with him anymore (And this Cobra isn't his car also). I have a buyer that could be interested in it. I've decided to keep my Cobra, till I find the right ERA 289FIA car if or when. Cheers Tom.
