The 427 block alone is 10K (aluminum one from shelby) Most likely a replica (real ones are worth 6 digits)

Most likely a replica with a 5.0

Nice kill, anyways!

The only Cobra replica I would consider is the Gardner Douglas. I can't understand why Cobra replicas persist in using a vastly inferior ladderframe chassis, especially since no-one will be able to see it.



Get a GD with the double wishbone option, a nice light V8 under the bonnet (Chevvy Ls1 or Rover v8), keep the weight under a tonne and I guarantee very few cars will be able to touch you.
