I'm on my 3rd also. Had a small block that I purchased already built when I was in my 20's. Sold that and had one built to order with a big block also in my 20's. I was too young to appreciate the car at the time and wanted more of a creature comfort sports car. Got into Porsche 911 turbos.

Now that I'm older and wiser I sold my Porsche turbo and purchased my 3rd Cobra a year ago and I'm having a blast!

I think you have that in reverse.

First was an Indigo Blue with white stripe 392 Ford small block stroker. Second was a Sunset red with Titanium stripe 427 FE with dual Holly 600cfm carbs built for me by John Vermeersh at Ford Racing. Currently I have a solid black more modern interpretation with Roush 427SR and 18" wheels and tires. All have been unique and fun in their own way.

Nice, that is similar to the look I am going for.

A few additional options you may be interested in:
The rivets in the in the hood are optional. In addition; the ferrules around the cockpit are for the soft top and tonneau cover and also optional.
Two other options not mentioned are the floor pan. You can have a sunken floor to give you a little more foot room. In addition; you can request the new option of having a narrower transmission tunnel. If you are always going to have a small block in the car than it would fit your needs. This will move your Clutch and Brake pedals to the right an 1 1/2".

No, the rivets are standard on the "S/C" with the hood scoop as are the ferrules for the soft top and side curtains. There is no "sunken floor" option, that is standard on the drivers side and has been for many years.

Yes there are now THREE footbox configurations that allow for different engines. The "standard" foot box setup allows either the Windsor series, the "FE" series or the "385" series engines. A no cost option is the "small block" footbox that gives more width and will only accommodate the Windsor engines. Last is the "Modular" footbox that will handle the 4.6/5.4 engines and the 5.0 Coyote.

Nice Sierra - I think we may have met at the SPF lot at the cruise. Mine is almost identical except dual roll bars, Firefly performance ss pipes and 440 built by Kenetic Racing. Assembly was by Craig Aylsworth. I'm in Toledo.

Sounds like a beautiful car. I wasn't at the cruise but look forward to seeing your ride on the road this year.

Thanks Jeff. I hope to be able to drive it more this year. Only managed about 500 miles last summer.
