SUMMARY

A vehicle fulfilling all the attributes of a #2- vehicle. A solid & superbly built Replica keeping very close to original specs of the unrivaled American Muscle Car, the 427 SC Cobra w/ a true (not bored) Big Block & period correct accessories & components. The tall/high rear ratio of 2.77:1 makes for less spectacular launches & overall better drivability, although not sedate by any means.

Has the look & feel of the real McCoy, very vintage & correct in all respects w/ absolutely no issues & the only thing it needs is a new driver. Reserve is set BELOW its appraised value & will be adjusted if necessary to make a sale.

Nothing quite compares to the visceral excitement of aBig Block Cobra going through the gears at speed! Check out the video again!
