Is it real, yes, is it worth 150K, after it's fourth time on Ebay in the last three months, obviously not to anyone with the disposable income

I don't know about this... I sense something funny  . Anyone know who bought it? That car should be around 100K.

Nice purchase! I wonder if this signals a change in the market or just a change in the seasons as Fall is just around the corner??!!

Thank you. I promised my wife I would sleep on it (new procedure for my addiction) and sure enough it was still there this morning. I called as soon as they opened and ended the auction together with them. I am confident it is legitimate and have the contract. Obviously the price was shocking and I moved. I do not know about the value as it is an early car and I know improvements have been made and it will have some "patina" due to age. This was not a simple just hit the button as some garage shuffling has to occur and thankfully I have a Mustang that had been spoken for and will finally go to the patient guy.

Congrats on buying the Kirkham, you got a hell of a deal.
As for 4007R, yes it's legit, I know the car and the owner. I made a post about that car not long ago in the All Cobra Talk section.

Sure is, I figured the Brothers K bought it, would mark it up a bunch and RE-SELL it themselves. Great price, great car.

It was a great deal. Even has Alum. heads on that old SO. He couldn't tell what make. Very nice car. I would have put some new tires on it and gave it a good clean up and go. But, I was beat out while considering their counter offer. There will be more!

Tires yes! the car sure does need something different. Where are people buying the Goodyear large White letter re do's I see on the continuation cars and newer KMP's? It would be nice to have some sort of build sheet for the car or history maybe the past owner will have some goodies for it

A popular place to get the Goodyear tires is www.rogerkrausracing.com but I understand they are currently out of stock.

Anyone notice that this auction has ended early because the car is no longer for sale? HMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!! My daddy always told me that whenever something looked too good to be true, it was usually because is wasn't true.

I think you'll find that the auction ended early because our new friend above hit the "BUY IT NOW" button.

The way I see it the car was priced extremely low right? Why negotiate pay what you are willing to pay. I do not think this an indicator of anything. The internet car store represented the car on behalf of a private party. The store does not care or know replica values and the private party set the price. This was an opportunity not a trend these things do happen from time to time. The car was available for about 16 hours no magic here. I look forward to chatting with you guys. I am new to the Cobra ownership world I am a member of SAAC, 428 Registry, Boss 302 registry, Marauder registry, and have made some great friends over the years. Can't wait till it gets here!
