I guess it all depends on how much $$$ you have wrapped up in your turbo 'Stang, and if you are comfortable parting with it to take on (what looks to be) a project of a Cobra replica. Hard to tell from the pic, but I would guess that the owner isn't kidding about it needing "restoration".

-That may be an understatement!

Look at the title: the name of the manufacturer. Finishline, and no doubt other sellers of Cobra replica parts. sells a "manufacturer's serial number plate." The buyer can then fill in the serial number himself. Go to www.csx427sc.citymax.com. There are a lot of photos of original Cobras. Many 2000 and 3000 series cars start of with a photo of the serial number plate. Compare very closely your photo with those on the website. I think all of the serial numbers of the Shelby 2000 and 3000 series cars were etched by hand: not stamped.

Ron,

If you are talking about the inboard inlets for what should be for the brake ducts not being cut open, you are correct

Definately do NOT trade your turbo car for that thing

I have to say, that so far, this has been a humorous thread. It's kinda like a pieces of a pirate treasure map...but with no treasure...so far.
