I think you will find a plethora of people who have ordered a roller. I suggest you contact a dealer for current order lead times.

Really a common placed occurrence ordering a car. Gives you the opportunity to order exactly the car you want... color and options. Hillbank has a lot of rollers available. Might have exactly what you want on the floor. Give Rich or Doug a call.
Well worth the time!

I have ordered a car from Doug at Hillbank. It will not be here in the states until Oct.
I ordered a car because I wanted to get exactly what I wanted. I don't have a problem the lead time, it is what it is and I agreed to it. I was just wondering if other Superformance Cobra owners had the long lead time. It is just the anticipation and waiting and wanting the car for the 8 to 10 months. Again its not a problem but it might drive me craze before I get it, but hopefully it will be worth the wait.

Yes, as it gets closer the angst will get worse. Well worth the wait, and all of us who ordered a car went through it. It soon shall pass and you will be doing the drivetrain install. Enjoy.

Exciting...tell us more about the car you ordered.
Color, wheels, anything special? What drive train did you decide on or still thinking about that? Who is doing the install?

I was lucky enuf to find a roller that I liked at a local dealer. It took a month to install the engine/transmission, customize the interior and add several options.

Dave and SNAKE65 - that was the longest month

Hotoxide, try waiting 8 months.
It will be ok I will be getting exactly what I want.
I wanted the dropped foot box's and I am getting a wider optional foot box. You know when you spend that kind of money you shouldn't have to compromise on anything and I couldn't find the color I wanted at any of the dealers.

Excellent! 15” wheels look the best in my opinion. Get some Avon or Mickey Thompson tires too.

Don't know about Cobras, but my GT40 took about 8 months wait. This was many years ago. At that time Superformance kept me updated when the boat left SA and arrived in US, etc. Have owned the 40 for 13 years now and it was well worth the wait.

Swift, that is what I am looking at at least 8 months. I think I will get some information and maybe some pictures when the car is completed in SA.
How do you like the 427SR ?

I know this thread was started back in March of 2021 but to update waiting times, they are getting longer. I ordered my MK III roller in Oct of 2022, it is now January of 2024. It just arrived in Florida and now waiting for a transporter to deliver it to New Orleans. Hope it is worth the wait!

Tell us about it and your drivetrain plans. What’s the car number
You doing the install? Still the same plan as noted earlier?

ERA same thing confirmed this week with Bob.

I ordered one from Dynamic in Ross Ohio back during the great recession of 2010 and it was built and shipped to Full Throttle in Sparks Nevada.....no problem....

If I can, I will buy a used car to avoid the wait and depreciation and the shipping........ I could not find a used one in the color or equipped the way I wanted it.....so I ordered one.....I place no value on new.... there is always a concern about making large deposits for a component car from a essentially a one man operation...he could get sick or die or go broke or run off with his girlfriend or his boyfriend.....I don't think that is a problem with a established and volume dealer like Hillbank or Superformance.... several 356 replica builders have gone out of business and people lost their deposits... so it is not like buying a Corvette....

Edited to add that now you can by a new complete car....
