Default Orphan finally for sale

It has been a while and I hope all is well in Cobra land.

The time has come to finally sell the Orphan, with just some paperwork to go it will soon have full NSW registration......yeah baby

The car is pretty much brand new with only a few kms in testing and traveling to the RTA.

A Quick run down:

Classic revival square chassis
New LS3 crate motor
New TKO 600 5 speed with LS7 clutch, quick time throw out bearing.
Custom air intake
Custom Gilmer drive set up
Shauns custom alloy tanks and radiator
Braided lines thru out
Team 3 Wheels
Contagious colour paint
Smiths genuine mechanical gauges
New Au Falcon rear end with LSD.

With the exception of the Fuel Tank and the front calipers (reconditioned Jag) every part is brand new.

Finished to a high standard with German velour carpets and leather trim.







Asking $89K ONO please call me on 0422 612 210

Thanks

Phil

WOW......was wondering where this had gone, I presumed that was sold off to a mate a year or so ago.

This will be remarkable car for some buyer.

Yeah lost interest and had it packed away for a while, too busy playing with VWs


This would be the first time it is actually offered for sale.

Looks great.

What is the go with that 'intake' setup?

Stick a Ford badge on top of that and you could keep it. Would fool a lot of people...

��

Good luck with the sale

Tony

A car from a magazine-featured car builder should be worth double;

Click on the Orphan thread build (posted above) and you will see its a custom intake feeding to a reversed LS intake. Way cool and ingenious. As is the clockwise water pump and well..... everything.

Give it time for a photo scout and this will be magazine feature car number three.

Hey Matt,
Hope all is well with you and your family.

No, the other cobra is up for sale as well. Just doing a few maintenance and a good detail and will advertise it for sale.

Hey Phil, yeah mate life and family are all great. Sad to see you exiting the cobra fold but I'm sure you'll be back. I hope so anyway. Always loved seeing your engineering art on the forum and that will be sorely missed by all.

Don't be a stranger and next time your up in the land of endless sunshine let us know. Doors always open. (Hi to Karen and da' fam as well mate)

Matt

Yes, deposit taken this afternoon, so the car is no longer an Orphan.

Thank you for all the enquiries.
