They kind of pride themselves on throwing different parts together to build their cars.
"Different parts", (I know what you mean,,, but), how different can a SB 350 be? Rumor has it Walmart will soon start selling crate 350's, right next to the oil and air fresheners. When that blue light special hits, those T-Bucket boys are gonna load up (a 350, 24 roll's of toilet paper, 12 pack of beer, air freshener and a pair of dice for the rear view...).

And every other Vette in SoCal is driven by a 70 year old woman on her 3rd husband, 2nd facelift, and that 'oh so cool' red leather jacket with all the embroidery.

Ha ha I like it!
And a thread like this is always going to have comments from both Chevy and Ford 'enthusiasts'. That surely is part of the light-hearted entertainment that often features on this forum?
But...the OP was "Would you buy a cobra with a Chevy 350 and fiberglass cracks that need repair if it was cheap?"
Why get annoyed by what has been labelled 'ill will' when most posters are just doing what was asked by the OP, and giving their opinion?
Cheers!
Glen

Pleeeaassseeee! 95% of all the Hot Rods, Custom cars, Race Cars, etc. are made up numerous non- factory parts. "Kit Cars" are mostly non-factory parts including the cobra replica market. It's all how you look at it, I know people that have a 1932 Ford Hot Rod...and there is not one 1932 ford part in it and they say, "it's a real 32 Ford".
On the other hand, Cobra's are replicas of an English sports car with typically a Ford motor in it...cuz Shelby didn't get a chevy motor deal from GM.
To stay with tridition...go Ford, but who really cares what the power is..what about the guy with the Viper in his cobra.

It's all good !
Bill
