My informed sources tell me the car is silver. Perfect color for a Cobra.

Congratulations on the new arrival Steve!

I actually started a thread about the car when it was on eBay.

Anyone Else Think This is a Good Deal?

Congrats Steve! Best of luck.

Steve,

Adding to the fleet I see ... now you have a stable mate for the SPF.

Pretty soon you will have to decide, do I take the green one or the silver one to breakfast ... decisions, decisions.

Congratulations !

- Tim

This car will be a 428 Street car, (roadster ) so i am looking for suggestions and help in the undercarriage exhaust portion ---

Question : has anyone built a 428 Street version of a CSX 4000 car >?

I was at Canepa Design yesterday; bruce is restoring CSX 3357 --and *that* car I will use for a reference in some things - but they have not installed the exhaust yet -- and the manifolds are hard --if not impossible to obtain.

--Ideas >?

I can help you out with exhaust, dash, ashtray box, battery tray, splitter, fuel cap and neck. I'm building a 4000 bodied street car for myself. I'm making tri Y exhausts for me and a well known restorer right now.
