There's an original FE powered CSX car in the Bowden collection I believe.

This earlier posting shows the three Cobras that they had. There was a CSX3150 I believe.

Hello Soul

One of the Vic members is building using a NOS FE.

Project is nearing completion.
Other than that I don't know of any.

Default 427

Soulman, I think from memory there was an old Antz I think on the Goild Coast just imported late last year (Geezer Import) that had a 427 side oiler in it but not sure where it went.

If you need any info I suggest giving Craig from RCR a call as he knows a fair bit about availability and stuff on all things 427 as well as who runs one in their current cars.

If you need his number PM me.
