Flyin_Freddie's SPF #770
Here's my car on the day after delivery, 10/21/2000. SPF #770 sits in my driveway in Germantown, TN, just outside Memphis. It's Guardsman Blue - actually "Hi Tech Blue" from PPG, with white stripes. Wheels are Trigo 15" 5-pin knock-offs, shod with Goodyear Eagle GTII's since I really like a more original look to my replica. Pipes are silver ceramic coated. Since taking delivery, I've installed a SafeCraft Fire supression system, 5-point cam lock Simpson harnesses on both sides, a Holley 4150 750-HP w/mechanical secondaries, and a couple of appearance items. Thanks to Olthoff Racing in Charlotte, NC, for their most excellent work!

ERA #196
Built by Cobra Restorers and owned by me from 1996 - 98. Had Holman-Moody 427 S/O with 12.5/1 pistons. Had to use racing fuel. It sounded like it was spitting ball bearings down the side pipes! VERY NASTY.

Day 1
What my 1990 Unique 427SC looked like the day I bought it.

Interior and Dash
I'm still not sure why I have a radio... it's not like you can hear it at 120MPH

427 SO Tunnel Port
I still have some minor cosmetics to do but it's almost there now, and it's running like an animal

Gina getting a feel for what it will be like when she asks of the keys to the "cobra".

ERA #561 Side Profile
This thing I like most about ERA's is that they sit "correctly" as the original Cobras did. Most other makes don't have that correct stance and posture about them - they either have the back end jacked up, or sit too high off the tires, etc.

Trimmed out like the No. 11 FIA Dan Gurney/Bob Johnson wrecked at Sebring.

Holman-Moody Sideoiler 427
This is the fire breathing motor that was in ERA #196 I used to own. It's a Holman-Moody prepared 427 Sideoiler w/ 12.5 to 1 pistons and a midriser dual four barrel manifold w two Holley 780's. I would guess it was pushing 600 HP. I had to run race gas in it. It sounded like it was spitting ball bearings down the sidepipes!

Aurora 289 Slabside
This was a sweet machine! Next to my 427 "street" version Era #561 - I liked this Cobra better than all the other ones I've owned. More people thought it was "real" beacuse of its relative rarity compared to all the multitude of sidepipe equipped "replicas".
