the LAST 289 Cobra roadster
CSX2589, the very last original 289 Cobra roadster built. Owned by Carroll Shelby since new. Factory automatic car.
At one time, Shelby had a 351C swapped into this car. It has now been switched back to a 289 HiPo with a C4 trans.

Brake relocation
Rear brake relocation was needed to allow clearance between the coilovers and the calipers. Re-drilled calliper mount bracket holes so the caliper sits about 40 degrees foward from original position. Also had to swap Left & Right brake assemblys to opposite sides, so the hand brake cable now will run on top of the axle & still be accuated by a foward movement. I wonder if others have thought of this solution?

My 1971 BOSS 351 that my Dad bought new. I bought it from him a year later. Two years after that, I bought a Pantera and swapped the BOSS 351 into it.

The olde girl
Disk swapping almost done, now Holden Commodore front disk and Toyota Crown rear disk, stops on a dime but then you have to pedal really fast to make it look impressive stopping. AutoStrada, Jakarta Utara, Indonesia. 4 x 4 shop humored me.

Fast Furious ‘cuda
This 1973 ‘Cuda was used in the movie Fast Furious 7, as Letty’s main car. Of the several ‘cuda’s used for filming, this was the “hero” car. It’s pretty much a stock 340 4 speed, made up like an AAR ‘Cuda. It has a fiberglass lift off hood, custom wheels similar to the ?1969 Kelsey Hayes wheels. The leaf spring 8 3/4 rear was swapped for a 4 link coil over shock suspension, with a narrowed Ford 9”, with disc brakes.
