Blue Cobra WANTED with 427/428 block
 
Guys I cannot find one locally - does anyone want to sell theirs for a fair price from further afield ??

Superformance, ERA, Backdraft, Contemporary etc

Must be Blue (ideally dark) with 427 or 428 block and IRS set-up.

Thanks,
Scott

not a chance!!!!
 
you should be buying something in the 60-100k range

I have one, you've probably seen it already. No IRS, but everything else and it's in Upstate N.Y.

Scott,

Here's a car that you should consider. Not cheap but worth every penny. The nicest blue SPF / FE available.

Mike,

Couldn't you convert yours to IRS using your new IRS rear?

Scott,

In addition to Mike's car (remember Mike is Turn Ten Racing, so it is more or a known thing), you may want to consider John McMahon's 289 FIA Contemporary.

If your goal is to have a Cobra where the mechanicals match the body, this 289 FIA may meet your goal. Power should be more than adequate, and the handling will be better.

Johns car is for practical purposes new, extremely well detailed, and only 90 minutes or less from Weschester. It has a Jaguar IRS with Watts Link, and 4 piston front brakes.

Hi David,
Well, my car is an A&C not a TTR so it was never designed for IRS. However, there are aftermarket hot rod IRS set-ups that will work.

Scott,

There was an ERA with 428 out on Long Island for sale at $38.5k a few weeks back. Not sure if it sold or not, looked fairly good, dark green though. I wish you luck in your search. I bet you miss the CCX? I was watching the video of your last car this past weekend. I loved the color.........

Greatest of luck and keep in touch!
