want to buy a cobra

[Noel]

this is the same post I just posted in All Cobra Talk, just thought I'd make sure the local guys see it.

I'm looking to purchase a cobra and wanted to throw this out there before I just build (have one built). If I don't find one in the next few days, I'll just buy a new SPF chasis, and figure it out.

Of course I've checked the "cobras for sale" section of this site and Cobracountry.com, I've also looked at ebay and the Dupont registry.....no dice. I'm sure if I waited longer something would turn up, but I'm ready now.

So with all of that, here is what I'm looking for:

Chasis: probably a Superformance, I'm open to others like Kirkham or ERA, but after shopping for the past few months I think SPF is the way to go for my needs. I'm not knowledgable enough and not set up to build it myself.

Color: Royal blue with white stripes and Rondals and a rookie stripe is exactly what I'm looking for. I'm not totally inflexable on this, but it's really what I'm leaning toward.

Drivetrain: I'm flexable here too, but I want to car to be super fast.....that's pretty much the point of the car to me. I've searched the site for a good argument about the small block vs. big block but everyone always says that there are too many opinions on it or that they don't want to touch this topic. But nobody has been able to explain if one is truely faster than the other and why (the car would be used mainly on the street but also on the track). I guess just want a rediculous 0-60 mph and a capable track car, that is still streetable.

I'd prefer 17" PSE rimms, but the rest of this stuff is easliy changable.

I'd like super low miles and a very new car in general, as I don't want to buy someone else's headaches.

my budget is in line with what it would cost me to build a new one...so 60k ish. the idea behind buying a used car is that I get a deal though.

I'm sure that I left some obvious stuff out, so send me a message if you think you might have a car that fits and we can talk about it.

Thanks.
