Please read all the below. This is a one of a kind Cobra that only has 400 miles on it.

As you know, all Cobra replicas are NOT created equal. This one was built with all brand new components.

Built with Unique Motorcars, one of the best Cobra replicas in the world. Please look at and read there entire webpage at: www.uniquemotorcars.com

If you look at turnkey prices for their 289 FIA model you will find that for a turnkey rolling chassis with my options and without an engine and transmission, and the labor to install the engine and transmission would add up to $43,150.

This car is complete and thousands of dollars less than a rolling chassis alone.

The Details:

Very desirable 289 FIA body style painted bright metallic silver. People always ask if it is aluminum.

Engine: Brand new from the crate, Paxton Supercharged Fuel Injected Ford Super High Output (SHO) 3.0 Liter engine producing 346 horsepower.

This engine is beautiful.

Custom professionally made polished stainless steel headers.

This is an engineering feat in itself as this engine was designed for a front wheel drive car!

Mobil 1 full synthetic oil.

Transmission: Richmond/Doug Nash 5-speed.

Rear: High performance Jaguar/Salisbury Independent Rear Suspension with 9” center section and adjustable Koni coil over shock system. 3:55 gear ratio.

Front: Custom tubular A-arms with adjustable coil over shock system with Mustang spindles.

Brakes: Stops on a dime with the Wilwood 11 inch vented 4 wheel disc brake system which has a dash adjustable front to rear bias knob.

Interior: All new leather with Stewart Warner Gauges that are white in the day time a glow amber/red at night. (really cool) Simpson 4 point racing harness.

Neal Pedals

Hydraulic clutch.

Aluminum radiator.

2,200lbs weight.

Very quick and gets great gas mileage.

Call Scott at 574-268-9453 or email me at byc@kconline.com for more questions or to buy this beautiful one of a kind car.

The motor mounts in this car are set up to accomodate a small block Ford if anyone would like to change the engine to something more original. The reason I bought it was that it IS DIFFERENT from all the rest. But, like my Mom always said, "to each his own".

Thanks Richard,

I live in Warsaw, Indiana. It is about a half an hour straight south of the Michigan border. The car is fun. I wish I had a digital video camera I would post some video on Youtube. I just have too many toys right now and have put them all up for sale. I have a 1965 Shelby GT350 convertible that is up for sale at this link:
http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/cto/1172064254.html

A Harley that is for sale at this link:
http://fortwayne.craigslist.org/mcy/1174164135.html

A 1994 Indy Pace Car Mustang that I haven't posted yet, and a couple of other trailers.

What I sell I sell....and what doesn't I'll keep. You know the saying...boys and their toys.

I have had a few people ask if the car would be available without the engine and transmission.

The answer is sure! I can work out something, just make me an offer I can't refuse....lol.

Have a great day.

Scott

This is a LOT of car and engineering for the money.

I talked with the builder recently and he said he worked directly with Paxton for 3 weeks to get the right supercharger combination. This car looks much better in person and it is FAST!

I am surprised it hasn't sold already. This is way cheaper than just a kit or turnkey.

Call me with your best offer. I would really like to clear out some of the toys.

Thanks

Scott

It is very quick, and if you keep your foot out of it, gets 30 plus mpg. So, sell your wife on the idea that this is just an economy car....lol...

This beautiful Cobra is leaving tomorrow to a first time Cobra owner in Connecticut.

He sounds like a really nice guy and I wish him well. I hope he has a blast with this one of a kind Cobra.
