its a pretty well thought out car...and ERA build...with webers..you could not build that car for the price they are asking...a painted roller like that would be close to $50K..and a motor and driveline would be another $15K...if you could purchase for the high $40's you have done very well

I think everyone in the audience can say that about their cars. If I were selling, you couldn't build my car for what I've got in it, but what does mean in terms of selling a Cobra today, in this market, at this time of year. Especially considering there's a polished Kirkham FIA asking $62,500 "languishing" on the market.

It's overpriced from a buyer's perspective. From the seller's perspective, not so much.
