If you can get hold of the May 1986 issue of Automobile Magazine , they have a large write up and test on the Autokraft Mk IV starting on page 30 .... and the car on the cover . I have that issue . According to them , the car sold new for $47,900 and there were two options available ... a functional hood scoop for $700 and the two white racing stripes for $600 .
Engine and transmission on this car was the high-output version of the 5.0 liter Mustang GT engine , transmission was the Borg-Warner T5 five speed and a Salisbury limited slip differential with a 3.06: 1 gear .This particular car was bought from Pawnee Ford Dealership in OK . According to the article , there were 6 dealerships ( then ) authorized to sell the cars and only 100 cars a year were to be built .
In the article , Shelby , when asked about Ford allowing Autokraft to use the Cobra name said ... " If they do , I`ll sue their a$$es " Sorta sounds familiar ??
Maybe Automobile Magazine has an on line archive that you could pull this article up on as it has a ton of info on the car and the company as of 1986 .
Good luck .
