Beautiful...simply beautiful!

I wonder if the Kirkhams would consider a trade in?

It's beautiful...gorgeous... But, ya know... I keep looking hard at the 289-style cars and I'm always drawn back to the 427's. Call me unsophisticated, call me a Philistine, but the hulking, big-flared, oil cooler scooped, hood scooped, big mouthed, side piped body just gets me weak in the knees like no other car, ever. Period. I love 'em both, but...

What I find amazing in the above photos is how even the reflections are, top to bottom and side to side. Nice bodywork!

I love the slabsides with flares. Maybe they can pound those lips out for me:D

LOL, in '62 those 'slab sides' WERE considered flared!
Can't wait to see it with the Daytons on.

God do I want that car!

...apply condom....NOW!!!!
 
SHA-WING!!!!

I'm liking that, but Ron, how do you get these super spy shots first?

It ain't fair I tell ya.

...now where did I put my rubber checkbook, hmmmm

of course, since charity begins at home, I know the Koikhams would love to deliver one of these babies to my front door, free of charge.

... right David? Tom? ummm.....David? Mom?

Very nice, it is a pretty car to see. I think that it is great that all varieties of Cobras are available now.
Anxious to see a completed one. I imagine that it is a leaf spring car.

Bumpster 02-12-2004 03:55 PM

Put it on the 427 frame, sell the roller for $39,000.00, and stand back! The line forms right behind me.

weekendwarrior 02-12-2004 04:01 PM

Will it fit on a coil spring frame?

David Kirkham 02-12-2004 04:04 PM

Bumpsteer, WW,

Sorry, but the line actually forms right behind my wife...for the hybrid, that is.

The first one is in the works and will be here shortly. We are now taking orders.

Sorry I haven't been able to post lately...too many sales. I have never been so busy in all my life.

Some people just show up and take photos and then post them...

David:) :) :)

Tongue Pirate 02-12-2004 04:07 PM

I'm sure that must be terrible for business;)

HIQ 02-12-2004 04:08 PM

Nice! JAMO - need a 2nd Kirkham?

Excaliber 02-12-2004 04:15 PM

Waht Barchetta said,,,,,

As nice as that slab side looks (it's a Kirkham, of course it looks fabulous) I'm still a knuckle dragger, I'll take a 427 please!
