Re: Drove my dream car this afternoon!
Here is an ad I just saw. this is a Comtemporary Classic which are very high quality and right up there with ERA. this car is about as close you can get to the original at a very fair price. this car is much more correct than most replica's and includes an "FE" big block, original top loader trans, full IRS suspension and pin drive wheels. I can see lots of other correct parts as well.
For Sale: 1965 Shelby Cobra 427S/C replica produced by renowned Contemporary Classic Motorcar Company of Mamaroneck, New York. British Racing Green. The BIG Picture: Click Here! Professionally built by Canaska Racing of Ft. Myers, Florida for endurance racing. This is certifiably one of the finest Cobra reproductions out there. Four-inch round-tube chassi— just like the original Shelby Cobras! It’s a low-mileage reptile, with less than 3,500 original miles logged. Ready for the “ride of your life”? Then be prepared to have this lean green drivin’ machine push you back into your seat as you hit the gas pedal. That's right—she'll bounce your eyeballs off the back of your head upon acceleration. You do the math: her engine bay sports a brand-new, professionally-built Ford 428FE powerplant with less than 300 miles on the engine. You’ll be the elated new owner to break-in the real 428 engine with over 450 horsepower and almost 500 lbs. of torque. BIG Photo of powerplant: Click Here! On the dyno she put out over 450 hp and produced consistently 450 lbs. of torque from the 2,500 rpm range right up to 5,500 rpms. She is made to go fast, and I mean FASSST! Rugged vintage Ford toploader 4-speed manual transmission, and Jaguar front & rear suspension. And, of course, she has the classic Jaguar IRS with Dana rear-end. Genuine knockoff wheels wired for safety. Period-correct bent-forward shifter, Smiths Instruments gauges with the correct ‘reverse-reading’ speedometer, and much, much more!
