Nice. 100mph in that would be......let's say bracing!

I really want one of these. Always wanted one since they came out in the 60’s. Considering that you can find one for about half the cost of a new, kitted out F-150, it’s not out of the question.

Only if it's a kit car... the originals are in the $1 million range.. lol.. but a kit would be cool, make sure only one roll bar so it looks original

Correction, there's only one original cobra 427 supersnake left and sold for 5+ million.. lol.. a bit out of my price range.

After watching parts of the televised Barrett-Jackson auction, this week in Scottsdale, I‘ve decided that my definition of the word “Wealthy” doesn’t begin to cover the depth of the pockets of these bidders.

They were buying $Million+ autos, as I just watched, worrying about the price of eggs.

@Mellow From the description, it sounds like he has an extra $20K, tied up in the engine. There’s a Facebook group that has listings from low $30’s to over $150K. I hope I never see one local with a For Sale sign. My daughter‘s inheritance would go up in smoke, tire smoke that is.

She's got a job right? She can build her own inheritance... When I'm gone, I'm hoping I'm in debt... lol... so far, I'm on track!

I've always pictured that ride with a v twin as way under-powered. But give a month free trial to make sure.....I'd rack up some miles and smiles.

I had an original shelby cobra. Gave it to my nephew years ago.
(it was matchbox sized!)

Of course they weigh nowt and for the latest variant the engine comes from Mr.Ford. You may wish to purchase their waterproof luggage.
